Early VA rifle

[Acer Saccharum]

Bill, I've been looking at this for days, and I hoped by now I'd have some really special words to say. I am speechless! For once, someone has shut me up!

What catches my eye is the form of this gun. It just doesn't get any better. It's really a lovely piece. I hope to see this at ....18th Century Artisan show?

Golly, what a fine piece.

Thanks for posting this, Bill, but you've raised the bar....again.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. Sorry I'm a bit late getting back.

Jim, I build on order, so I build what the customer expects and try to exceed it. Next time I build spec, scrap and burnish is what I intend to do but that will be a while.

Tom, the "cap" on the snake and the eye are sterling silver.

Deano, The subject of customizing set triggers deserves it's own post. Start a new subject and we'll have some fun.

Well, you just need to tell your customers what they want   Once again, a beautiful gun Bill.  Thanks for sharing.

Oh man, what a great gun. Beautiful lines, colors, and texture.  Real nice lighting in the pictures too. It really shows the subtle shapes blending together that are hard to make out in some pictures.

Big thanks.
