I’m expecting to get slapped around a little for this but…

The early Golden Age guns, the finely relief carved rococo style scrolls in just the right places guns that we all admire are the guns worth copying and the $s…

This gun is sadly not in that class…this gun is expertly crafted incorporating most of the common post-Golden Age rifle shortcuts as was the original…gaudy wiggly wire is a poor replacement for flowing shadowed scrolls and shaded acanthus leaves…that actually compliment each other’s presence in the stock architecture.

This gun displays a lack of understanding of rococo style art …duplicating the ”cringe”worthiness probably has value…but yikes! I’d spend my $8-10K on a faithful Golden Age duplication.
