Fresh of the lathe and CNC machine, a 4140 chrome-moly steel, 42” octagonal barrel, 45 caliber, and a 1:56 twist rate with 8 groves. Maple stock, brass patch box, and adjustable iron sights. She is a beauty.
My Cane-tuck-ee Girl
Keep your bony AR15 chick, I like mine with some meat,
My curvy Cane-tuck-ee girl, always sweeps me off my feet.
I love her lines and the solid weight of her body,
She’s a straight shooter, never vain or haughty.
Her dark maple wood stock, In my arms it lies content,
Her black powder perfume, intoxicates with its scent.
She is a thrifty girl, takes sixty grains of powder, that is all,
Down her 42” grooved barrel slides the ramrod patch and ball.
I align the plain iron sights and gently pull her set trigger,
She instantly recoils with a youthful vim and vigor.
Practice, patience, and discipline, these are her demands,
A tight grouping at two hundred yards requires loving hands.
