William Shreckengost Half-stocked Rifle at RIA in May
« on: March 26, 2017, 07:55:27 AM »
Since we have a members interested in Schreckengost rifles, there is one coming up in May's premier Rock Island Auction, item #348. The plain rifle is half-stocked in maple but without a patchbox/capbox or inlay work. It has distinctive Schreckengost architecture and a nice script signature, "W. Shreckengost." Shelby Gallien

I had a nearly identical rifle years back. I think he produced a many "hunters" along with his artistic works
Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.
