    Borrowed a gun Saturday........

    Yes. I used a propane torch to scorch the stock before I put the varnish on. I had read that Mtn. men wrapped rope around their rifles then scorched them to create the pattern. Don't know if that's true but I did my twist on it.

    Borrowed a gun Saturday........

    In 1990 I moved to Idaho. I did not own a big game rifle and could not afford one. I built (more like asssembled) a CVA Frontier in .50 cal. Never killed a thing with it.

    The Gift

    2 years ago my mother and step father gifted me a very old flintlock rifle. It was purchased from an antique shop with very little known about it. Although I have great visions of the deeds this rifle has performed. The rifle is approximately 45 cal and has brass furniture. The barrel is 44"...
