SWIVEL BREECH GUNS
I built this gun several years ago.I wrote an article about it which appeared in the April 1990 issue of Muzzle Blasts.One barrel is a 13/16 .45,the other a 1" .62 smoothbore(20ga).I built my own lock using a back action English lock guts and making a new plate to go with Siler hammer.Front locks were made up from parts from Antique Gun Parts












BUSINESS END OF THE GUN
Here you can see the different sizes of the barrels.Note ramrod is inside of the forearm.No thimbles used.One end of rod is for .62,other for .45.Forearm attaches to barrels by machine screws threaded into barrels












DIAGRAMS FOR VARIOUS PARTS
Use these to get you on the way to planning your swivel gun.You can change things to adapt to your needs in a gun.Same size barrels would be a lot easier.
