Wow, she is sweet. I especially like the carving and wire work. Nice wood too. What caliber is she?

I too have owned firelocks from Ross Westgate. Since he is in my backyard and does fine work I have no complaints only smiles Smiler. If you don't mind me asking where did you get the gun? It looks familiar. Not one of mine though.

That is a dream rifle, IMO. Congratulations, Boyd.
