Title: Thumbpiece source.
Post by: Clark Badgett on June 11, 2025, 05:23:31 AM

Does anyone know if there is a source for this English thumbpiece? Or maybe someone that has the skills to make some up?

That’s a beautiful thumbpiece — really elegant design!

Did you try contacting someone like Jim Chambers or Blacksmith Bolt? Maybe someone like The Rifle Shoppe would have something close, even if not exact.

If anyone here has had a custom thumbpiece cast or engraved, I’d love to hear about how you went about it — especially on a budget!

Smart Dog (Dave Person) and his exceptionally gifted apprentice Maria cast their own thumbpieces.

Phones sometimes change words as the post button is pressed. Mine sure does.
Tks, I will change that if possible. On my computer now.
