That sure is a beauty. I like the carving style and the detailed engraving border work is most excellent. Really captures something for me.

That is a very fine looking rifle! Love the architecture.

I'm kind of new to the world of the longrifles, trying to learn the different schools. What style is this particular rifle? Early York?
