Let's Build an Investarms Gemmer Hawken Kit Part 12: Hawken Trigger Guard

In part 12 of what I am sure is now the slowest releasing series ever ;), we are getting the trigger guard ready for finish. Trigger guards are some of the most complex pieces of hardware on muzzleloaders due to their complex curves and face changes. Working on trigger guards is an easy way to practice your filing techniques. If you can clean up a trigger guard casting, you can file just about anything!

If you have any questions about this kit or the techniques I'm using, leave them in the comments below. I will address as many comments as I can in videos associated with this series to give you as much detail as I can about the answer.
