This gun is re-posted , this time with a rather complete back ground story. First posted last Fall, this gun just gets better and better every time I look at it !

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'?

That gun has particularly graceful profile for the period. It also shows that someone , or a couple of generations, cared for it. Any comments on that running deer artwork?
And, thanks for posting the link.

Eric you're like a dang magician some of these things you can build man. Love this piece. I suspect a very happy new owner somewhere.
Is that the dilapidated house it was 'found' in?
