Nord / Hurricane

Thanks for the library submittals, they have been greatly appreciated.  Its been really great to be able to read your comments and see a quality photo of the rifles / pistols in question.  I've been like a sponge here soaking up all the information I can, and I'm sure fellow formites are doing the same. 

I do have a favor to ask tho, ever since the first bunch of posts, I've been ogling the bench  :D Would you mind showing some more shots of it!!  That bench would look good in my entry way  ;)  I may need to build one of those.   

Thanks again for the library.

The bench does not belong to either of us, if you are referring to the one against the stone wall upon which rest some of the finest guns in the Museum.  Perhaps the owner will read your post and contact you, if you post your email . It currently is "hidden" on the ALR site.
Thanks for your very kind words. They, along with the positive comments of many others , make all the effort and work  worthwhile. Please consider sending  us pictures of your guns and encouraging others to do the same.

I can't add more to what Fred has already said.

Your kind words are deeply appreciated. It took almost two years of planning to bring the site public and we appreciate any constructive comments that might be shared.

Brokenflint and Blacksmoke, I have finally gotten around to photographing the old bench.  I posted it in the "Over the Back Fence" category.  If there are any particular shots you would like to see feel free to ask.

Hugh, I am sure you wouldn't remember me but we met at the Las Vegas winter show year before last.  Your were very kind and generous with your time.  You and your cased rifle MADE my visit that year.  Sometimes hard to believe a human hand can  produce something so fine!  .......
