Mr. Gahagan did a superb job of building there.  Really like the figure engraving on the TG and BP.  Classy rifle!

Wonder if those hogs are just dying to get shot by that beautiful rifle?  LOL!

I always like the early guns.  Mike did his usual flawless work of putting this together. Great piece and I especially like the walnut stock and the engraving.  I bet Mike had to hold his hand back to not "improve" it.
