[trlsmn]

One of many firearms that Grand Dad hand built. This particular one is said to have been completed in the 1950's

Nice looking gun but it deserves being displayed on a better back ground. One that really shows off the gun.

:thumbsup: That's one fine looking rifle. Do you think that your Grand pa would be willing to adopt an older child?? I'm available :grin: :grin: Vern

Seeing as how he's been dead for 33 years it's not looking very likely Ancient one. :wink:

That is a mighty fine piece. You're truly blessed to be endowed with such cool hand-me-downs. Got any more?

I have lots of firearms including NFA stuff but this is the only one that fit the scope of this forum. My uncle has the rest of my Grandfathers guns and as soon as I get some pics I will post them.

Your granpappy was sure enough one of the early trailblazers. Very nice work!

Hope you will stay some decades longer with us and keep the tradition of bp and shooting muzzle loaders alive.

Hey, the old ones like you pass tradition to us young ones and teach us.

Really extraordinary, worthy of a museum! The inlays are fantastic. I think I would have liked your grandad.

I agree with Swampy. We have all looked at pictures of beautiful firearms placed on work benches, beds, and the floor with someones foot in the picture. A few extra minutes to put down a sheet or solid color blanket will make a world of difference in your photo.

That dishwasher was not completed in the 1950's.

But . . . the rifle is "a joy for ever!"
