A couple years ago I took in a project gun from a fellow. It was based on a Zoli .58 cal. M1841 Mississippi rifle that he had restocked. The stock was made without a patchbox, so I knew it was my big chance to build a Chapman rifle. I am in need of reference photos of any details of the original. I especially need details like markings, sights, etc., and anything that sets it apart from the model it was based on. The only photo I've seen are a full side view in a book I have. I'm hoping someone here can help. Thanks, Fred Chapman
