Hi Paul, I don’t have the list anymore. I’m looking for one like this but yellow like the buttplate.

Rich,

Not sure if this is the bow profile you want, but I have started making my own trigger guards by casting this master "blank" then filing the castings into anything I want. I'll be making a few castings in the next week or so and would be happy to send you one.

The third pic is a finished one made from that master... will upload in a few.

That is genius- better get ready for production because this could be a hit!  I can send you boxes of brass cartridge cases.

Still interested in a completed one from Paul if he’s got one. I’m going to be building at least a couple fowling guns a year for the foreseeable future.

Hi Ted,

I'm pretty certain Rich will jump on your offer, but if he doesn't, I'd like to have your BP and TG.  Thanks.
