Ken Guy rifle on the Blog
« on: May 09, 2009, 03:43:11 PM »
Good Morning,
Ken Guy has a very nice looking rifle on the Contemporary Blog site.  Ken, is this a recent build? And will it come to Friendship with you?

Regards,
Pletch

Larry,
Yes and No.  I originally built it several years ago.  It came up for sale on another board last year and one of the ALR members bought it still in unfired condition.  Being it was something I had done a while back I felt I could do better.  The ALR member was kind enough to work out a deal where I got the gun back and I'm building the member a new gun.  I've been wanting to try aging a gun so I refinished the gun last year and gave the aging a shot. 
There should be some pics in the archives but here's a couple of before and after pics.
