Gahagan gun on the blog
« on: February 10, 2010, 03:34:49 PM »
EXCEPTIONAL! Anyone know any particulars on this gun? Barrel length, bore, etc?. This one has pushed me over the edge to make a decision I have been flirting with for the past few years. I think I'm done taking orders and will be working on speculation from here on out. I need to build some nifty stuff like this. ;D

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's the second really nice Hudson Valley fowler by Ken that Art and Jan have shown in the past few months.  I have never seen anything he made that isn't just top notch.   

I'm amazed at how he finds time to do such exceptional work on all the different things he makes - knives, guns, even 18th century style furniture.  I think he still has a more than full-time day job as well.

That's a totally convincing piece, yet unique.
