Puzzle 549
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New players! Read the rules before you join, please, and be prepared to host the next if you win!

These are the rules:

* 1. You may only guess one letter at a time.

* 2. After you have guessed a letter, you must wait for another player to guess a letter before you can go again. (see also rule #9)

* 3. The host of the game responding to a guess does not count as a turn. Should you choose a letter, then receive a response from the member host, you must wait for the next member to guess a letter.

* 4. One point will be awarded for each correct letter, 2 points for vowels.

* 5. Only six misses are allowed in the game.

* 6. If you wish to guess the phrase, send it to me via Pet Talk Private message. (This is accessible via the 'PM' or 'Profile' buttons on any of my posts). DO NOT post it on the forum. If you wish to guess a letter, post it on the forum.

* 7. You must have submitted a correct letter to submit your solution. Unlike letters, if you submit a wrong solution, you are disqualified from continuing in that puzzle.

* 8. The player who correctly guesses the phrase wins the game. If no one has guessed it correctly after six misses, then the player with the most points wins the game.

* 9. Only 5 guesses allowed in total until the host updates the puzzle. Any guess after 5, before the next update, won't be counted as a guess. And as always, someone else has to guess a letter before you can guess another letter.

And here is what you win ... you get to create the next puzzle.

(Should you win the game and are unable to host the next puzzle, you may pass it to the member with the next highest points)

Here’s the puzzle! have fun ---forget Google.

Wom was correct in his guess.

Aiken Collection
One of the finest Boutet pistols in or out of a museum is this single flint lock pistol made on the special order of Napolean for his brother Joseph, King of Spain. In chiselled bronze and sheet silver are worked eagles, panoplies of arms, Roman heads and of course, the Spanish coat of arms. The matte black barrel is inlaid with 150 gold stars.

Miniature Arms by Merrill Lindsay

I Have attached the verbage that follows the puzzle. I have a seperate picture that I will have to send on the next replay because of size. The Billy johnson referenced in the book is my father.

Thsi is a picture of the original gun and the one my father made.

The next to last paragraph of the link talks about the miniatures value


Nine of the guns featured in the book under the harry Knode collection are now in the Museum of American History on permanant display.

Very nice Bill.
He must have spent a lot of time doing that.
It's almost flawless.

:eek: WoW what a very nice & detailed Pistol it is..

Your father is an excellent craftsman. I must confess that I was miffed that Wom had beat me to the final answer or I would have replied sooner. I had figured all but three words (you did issue a challenge) and couldn't wait to get home to finish the puzzle.

Great game.

Even greater artwork.
