Brand New, Never Fired, Green River Rifle Works & Green River Rifle Works Collectors Association Gun
GRRW.CA H.E. Leman NW Trade Rifle built by Les Bennett [GRRW/GRRW.CA #L02 LB]
This is a dual stamped build (Green River Rifle Works [GRRW] / Green River Rifle Works Collectors Association [GRRW.CA]. Mr. Bennett had an original GRRW Leman Trade Rifle kit from 1976 that had never been assembled (taken in trade for his labor as a GRRW custom muzzle-loading gunsmith working for GRRW). When GRRW.CA was formed he went to work for this firm, mentioning he had this kit from the original GRRW firm. He was told build the rifle and double stamp showing the new owner that this is a special build.
Special Build:
Original GRRW Leman Trade Rifle kit has the “Blue Jacket” Sander’s brass butt plate and trigger guard cast from an original H.E. Leman Trade rifle with his proof marks on the inside of each item (not visible without removing them). This rifle has the “jug-choked” barrel that GRRW was famous for winning many shooting contests.
Birchwood Casey Genuine Oil’ finish on the rifle for the best way to display the beautiful grain of the maple stock.
Asking $2000 Shipped. USPS Money Order, Personal Check accepted and held until cleared. Ships UPS with insurance.
( I am currently checking the rifling twist )
