Packdog on the Blog
« on: June 16, 2010, 02:59:24 PM »
Ken's new personal rifle is shown today.  It was one of the featured items in the contemporary display at the Norris show.  She's a beaut.  Had the pleasure to handle her, and she handles like a well balanced machine.  Ken can elaborate on it more.  Great gun Ken.

Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'?

Ken- you've made the perfect rifle!  Man what Long tang, the LOCK is perfection- as are those fine triggers.  I especially like the rear one.  Oh, let's not forget the front site's double base.  The Masonic Emblem beautifully executed!

Thanks for sharing your personal rilfe.  I'll swap you somethin good fer it!

as good as this one looks in pictures, I think it is much nicer in person.  I don't know why, but holding the rifle is just different then the pictures.
Nicely executed.
