My "Busty Brunette" because you asked for it.
« on: January 23, 2012, 06:17:26 AM »
Over in the Accoutrement thread, a couple of guys asked to see my rifle built by Allen Martin .  With a little arm twisting, here's the "Busty Brunette" built by the Lehigh Jedi....Allen Martin.  The force is strong in this one it is.!!
Sugar maple, brass furniture, .50 cal x 48" Getz Barrel, modified siler, masterfully carved and engraved.!!

Dane, you're a lucky dog to have such a pretty girl.  The only thing better, and is owning two Al Martin's.  He's building me my second, and I'm trying to wait patiently  for my new girlfriend.  I'm just hoping Flyrod (that's her name) won't be jealous. ;D  Go shoot that sweetheart.

Bill,
Allen is building one for me too, but I'm pretty far down the list. Mine will be a plain gn, but cant wait anyway.

Pletch,

I don't think Al knows how to build a plain gun.  I know mine turned out more than I thought it would.
$#*!, everything about it is more than I thought it would be.
There's not  a nicer man on this earth than Allen either. I consider it my honor to call him a friend.

And @!*% he's talented.
In His grip,

Dane

Hi,
Boy, Allen's wife must be really happy because he really knows how to make a sexy gun.  I am going to have to take a cold shower.

Just wanted to show you one more photo.  You can plainly see the quality in this close up of the carving before finish.

This guy is amazing!

  Dane,
   Beyond the talent,the cheekside carving tells me a story. With one squiggly line.It's lusty,fallopian,totally female,magnificent! The story of life! This gun just knocked my socks off! That squiggly line.

I just thought it looked like great carving, the female connection went over my head. I guess I need to see more originals.
