Jim, I think the boulder blocking the tomb on the cheek inlay is pretty darn creative. Welll done.

Coolest buttplate ever

You captured the essence of the Lauck family very well, I really like it!  The personal touches add to the rifle nicely, well done!  Thanks for posting the photos.

Late to the dance - I like it a bunch.  It is voluptuous like an early Virginy should be.  Great rifle.

Thanks everyone, this was a great project and I am proud to say the new owner was very pleased with it.

Very nice rifle and well done. One question though, why no patchbox? Maybe your customer didn't want one, but with the quality of work you put into it, a patchbox would have been a nice touch.

The customer was very specific about what he did and did not want on his gun, a patch box was not on his want list. As a builder I would have liked to have made a nice box for this rifle, but the customer is always right, so no box!
