A Gun is Born

This is the work bench, and many of the tools that come into play, for creating a gun. I'm sure, for modern firearms, the creation process is quite different but here the craftsmen are creating old fashioned muskets that would be appropriate for the time Colonial Williamsburg is set in. Not only that, they are hand making each musket in the same way that a rifle was constructed back in those days. I don't know if I'd have the patience to do something like that, even if I did know how to build firearms. The people of Colonial Williamsburg are real artisans!もっと詳しく
