    Chickopee Kits- Its Official!!

    After many hours of design changes and hand filing the Chickopee kits are finally signed off and the parts are on order! Now you can be the first in your club to show off a fine looking rifle you built yourself!

    The classic single shot revived. This kit contains all the laser cut parts needed to build Frank DeHaas's Chickopee CF rifle as detailed in his book Mr. Single Shot. It is a simplistic little gun designed to be built from flat stock by the average tinkerer in a home shop with minimal tools. It features 1018 steel construction and laser cut parts with upgraded 0.25" thick sideplates instead of the thinner 3/16 plates called for in the plans. The barrel block included will fit a standard 0.925 Ruger 10/22 barrel or can be threaded to fit most other barrels of suitable caliber. It can be made in rimfire or centrefire based on firing pin placement. Instructions are included in Frank DeHaas's book, Mr. Single Shot, some dimensions differ from mr DeHaas's book but all the parts will fit proportionately
    Kit includes:
    2x reciever sides
    2x breech blocks
    2xsupport shoulders
    1x trigger
    1x hammer
    1x release lever
    1x hammer block
    1x spring block
    1x firing pin block
    1x breech face
    1x extractor blank
    1x trigger guard
    1x barrel block
    1x hinge pin
    assorted pins

      They can be mig or stick welded together, the original plans called for hard solder but Im not sure I would trust that

        I might be in deep doodoo if a mig welder shows up in the garage. This might be an ideal new years project.

                    Also, does this kit come with instructions, or do we have to buy the book you mention? And do you sell the book?
                    It looks like a cool project that I'd be interested in, but your website doesn't have much information on it. (And I'm a curious guy)
