I had my Bartlett rifle out to take some pictures today. So, I'll post a few to look at. .50cal. built for me in 1989 by Frank Bartlett. 37" Getz barrel. Siler lock. Frank always put something under the lid. He told me the stickers came from a box of feminine hygiene products!
Frank loved doing wire inlay. He would put it on even if you didn't want it. He built his son a rifle with 110ft. of wire. All the carving was done with wire. Even the patchbox was wire outlined. No brass.
