Title: Strawick rifles
Post by: Ichinotani on March 25, 2024, 03:35:41 AM

Hi, new poster here. Hope I don’t screw it up. Frankly, I’m totally daunted by all this computer stuff! Anyway, I noticed some posts about some Butler county makers named Strawick. My dad bought a Strawick full stock back in the 1950’s and I still own the rifle. One old post said the Strawick family donated all of the tools in the old gunsmith’s shop to the Western Pa Historical society in 1925. Does anybody know where this collection is today or if it even still exists. I would very much like to visit this grouping if possible. Is there anyone out there who has other Strawick guns?
