About the Appalachian Barn Gun
The Appalachian Barn Gun is a plain working rifle, built for use rather than show. No buttplate, no nose cap, no entry pipe, no sideplate, and no patchbox. These were the rifles that fed families and stayed by the door in some of the roughest country in the eastern United States. Jim drew this one directly from an original barn gun in a friend's collection, true to the period in both spirit and detail.
Because the design is simple, this is one of the easiest builds we offer, and a good one to build alongside a son, daughter, or grandchild.

Shipping
Liquid Shipping
Liquids will not ship in the kit box. There are different regulations that apply to the chemicals that we sell and they will need to ship ground, when the kits will ship USPS Priority Mail. Plus, it would really stink if a liquid were to leak on your beautiful new kit!
Order tracking
You will receive tracking information when your item ships. For kits, you will be contacted before shipment and after shipment so there is no need to worry about a kit box shipping when you are out of town. All other packages will ship when available and you will be emailed a tracking link.
