Title: Waiting on UPS... The wait is over!
Post by: Firefighter91 on May 29, 2019, 03:05:36 AM

To deliver my new smoothbore. It’s a .62 smoothbore from TVM, Melanie was kind enough to send me some pictures

You are going to love that gun.  I've had a similar one for over a decade and it's a favorite of mine.

You are lucky - I am waiting on a rifle from the Postal Service. Got the card today, but can't pick it up until tomorrow.
The only picture I have of it, was a single picture on the site I purchased it from.

My gun arrived today and I must say the pictures didn’t do it justice. I could not be more happy with the way it turned out. The fit and finish is beautiful  ;D

That's awesome, Firefighter!
It's a wonderful feeling to anticipate a new rifle and then it's even better than we imagined.

The color and grain on that wood is fantastic. They did a really good job on that gray finish on the steel, much better than on mine.

OK, now it's my turn.
Mine is coming via USPS tomorrow.

I was so very fortunate to recently receive an unexpected inheritance from my Dad so I bought this (thank you Ron) and it will be a tribute to him.
It will be known as "Big Scotty".
I miss you Pop.
