    I am always impressed by your wood. And I don't mean that in a Provincetown, Ma. kind of way. I love gazing upon your wood... especially when it's oiled. Because, it's so... tight-grained and smooth. I can almost feel it in my hands.

    Well, on that note... nothing like a beautiful piece of wood! On a fine rifle. Especially a vintage military rifle, built with the finest black walnut wood that America could produce.

    What the %$#@ were you preverts thinking???? Preversion... everywhere.

    Cheers,

    Sirhr
     
    Your Wood Glistens in the sun !! Beautiful set up man. (y)

    Dang...that rifle turned out awesome!! Shoots great also!
    Mine is in the works, I should be getting some updates soon... I will post up some pics for you.
    Hope it turns out as good as yours!

    Judging by the fresh cut looks like it may be a semetic tree just from the moil.
     
    Remington Rolling Block in 38-50 that I built. Started as just a rusty action my farrier found in a barn. McGowen barrel that I rust blued and custom sscheutzen stock I made. I farmed out the barreling, checkering and color case hardening. Did everything else myself.

    Nice slickfork Buffalo! Rifle is also real purty! Of course, the riata lends a touch of authenticity to how things were done back in the day!:cool:
