what do you hunt with?...

[roundball]

I noticed on your .58cal, the lock is on the right side, but so is the cheek piece...never seen that before

 

[Pork Chop]

Didn't RC get a rifle built like that?

Yeah, it's a lefty stock with a righty lock. I've heard that there are originals floating around that way, too, but I'm no authority.

I'm in touch with the GRRW smith who made it, so it was a special treat to find it last year. The "choked" GRRW barrel is a wonder for accuracy, but the big deal for me is the castoff for a lefty shooter. It comes up and points as naturally as a fine English shotgun, even if it is pretty barrel heavy.

I bought this one in the mid 70s from Bob Watts...It was a .45 until I converted it to a .40 in the late 80s...

When I made this one...It's a .54...

I use my .50 flint GPR...heavy but really accurate.

Damn, Swampy - Every single time I see that bag of yours I get so doggone jealous. Now I got a nice fowlin' bag you made me and it's a very nice thing indeed. But man..........just LOOK at that bag! I daresay I've never seen one so, so.....perfectly beautiful. As always, Nice job, sir.

 

[Marc Adamchek]

Uhhhh, oh yeah......The shootin' iron is quite a sight too, but I'm tellin' ya that bag somehow takes over center stage. A real beaut!

tg - Are those Arrow Legioniere (sp?) mocs peakin' through? No I am NOT the PC police. I just think about gettin' me a pair of those every once iin awhile and wonder how they wear.

 

[rabjr]

Thanks Marc, I kinda like it too. :thumbsup: Gotta thank Jethro for sendin me that calf hide. :thumbsup:

"tg - Are those Arrow Legioniere (sp?) mocs peakin' through"

Yes they are and I make no claims as to them being PC,though they are somewhat acceptable in some circles, but they are tough and wear well, one needs to order at least a size smaller than normal or your feet will float in them.I went with the tall ones to help keep out garbage.

The picture disappeared in my post above...for whatever reason :hmm:

Here's my favorite huntin rifle, Ole "Bull Knocker" a .62cal Jager by Jud Brennan. In the Picture with it is an original Howdah .69cal double pistol and a Longknife by ML Knives. The Bag is Buffalo hide and Buff horn by Beaverman Jim Smith.

I have used this original 20ga flinter for Doves.

I have used this original 12ga. for doves. This is actually the first time I went dove hunting period.

I have used this Beck in 50cal. for deer.

My daughter used my 50 GPR. I never did take anything with that gun. Good thing she could.

Usually an image disappears because it has been moved or renamed on the image hosting site (i.e. Photobucket, Shrewbows, etc.) and the link is "killed".

Now there's four of 'em kickin' arounst here!

Nice kit, by the way. :wink:
