Absolutely - WOW.
What caliber? What is the barrel length? What does it weigh? Who made it - you?

Ah yes. Sorry. I was so entranced with the craftsmanship and beauty of the rifle that I completely overlooked the text.

Longhunter ...

I am a veterinarian, sworn to care for animals, keep them free of pain, keep them alive and well.

I just cannot bring myself to shoot any living creature! I do not even like shooting at targets with animal silhouettes on them. Give me an old fashioned bulls eye on the 50-100 yard range every time!
