A Lancaster Rifle Signed Jacob Dickert
These photographs were taken during the 1993 NMLRA Gunsmithing
Seminar at Northern Kentucky University. Jack Brooks had borrowed this
rifle from the owner, William Meyers, and he brought it to his class so
the students could study the original and attempt to make a stock with
the same architecture.
A color photo of the rifle appeared on the cover of the February 1994
issue of Muzzle Blasts and it was included in my article on the
1993 Seminar (pages4-7) in that issue. It had already been
featured in Longrifles of Note, by George Shumway in the July
1988 Muzzle Blasts.
