If it is what I think it is, you might try Track of the Wolf.\

What is a Vincent Ohio rifle print?

John and Caleb Vincent Of "Ohio" produced in the 1830's a half stock Hawkins style rifle in caplock with a "Goulcher" type lock and a unique drum/patent(snail) style breech. They were a usually smaller caliber .40-.50 and of smaller frame and length.

Thanks guys. Track sells vincent gun kits but I was wanting to scratch-build one and was hoping there were plans available. They don't have them and no one else does either it seems.

If you ever get up to Lodi Ohio check The Log Cabin Gun Shop . They have a nice museum with several Vincents ,and may let you take measurements ,and tracing of one.

Thanks Remroller, that's probably my best bet. That's where I first saw one up close. I'll have to try to get up there soon.
