Another E.Va Born at TVM

After a long wait, my E.Va arrived Fri Aug 12.
Another work of art from Matt and team.
If you have any doubts how a Mark DeHass barrel shoots out of the box...check the 3 holes in middle of target

There ain't enough space to describe how she shoots. Toni talked me into an E.Va for the balance and feel. Boy was she right.

Make sure someone gets a photo of your face expression as you unwrap your rifle when it arrives.

Terrific looking Virginia...could have come from a plank out of the same tree as my Virginia last year...TVM does great work for sure, and are totally customer satisfaction oriented...

Fantastic rifle. I got the news today that mine is getting started next week.

I really like the looks of that sunburst on your cheek rest. I might ask about one of those. Do you mind telling me what the charge was for that sun burst. You can PM if you like. Or if you would rather not say then I fully understand that as well.

I hope mine turns out as well as yours. But from what I have been told they all turn out great.

I am really looking forward to getting mine. What was your wood graded at?? Thanks Again and have a great day shooting that fantastic rifle!! Tom.

Does the "E" stand for eastern or early?

 

[RBrooks]

Don't mind at all talking about my new rifle.
When Richard called to say my rifle was ready to
start, I ask if it was too late to add the star and he said it was no problem. At a cost of $35 and the work only took him about 2 hrs. As for the wood, I originally ordered plain but about 4 months into the order up-graded to P+ and it was worth it. I wanted to put most of the money in the barrel and siler deluxe lock. The stain is honey maple

Since I didn't want a patch box or carvings I thought it might be too plain so I added the star and it really does give it some kick.

The catalog at TVM describes this rifle as
Early Virginia, but probably cover the general
style of mid-18th century to about 1780

I'm no expert on periods so don't quote me.

And I'm very surprised that Mr. Brooks didn't already know what the commonly used EVA reference stood for...

Everything is abreviated on this board lately, it's hard to keep it all sorted out. :idunno:

Hi,
I have a friend that wants me to build him an early "Virginia" style rifle. I have references to look at but I am curious about the TVM EVA gun. I like the lines but what exactly is "early Virginia" about it? Can anyone point out the appropriate details to me?

Thanks,

dave
