From David Price:

"Well guys, don't get too excited about ordering one of my swivel Breech kits.  I shipped out the last one a couple of months ago.  I don't think I will be building any more kits.  I have built over fifty kits, and have built more than fifty finished swivel breech rifles over the last thirty years.  I just turned 84 years old and I am not taking any more custom orders.  What I intend to do is to just build a few rifles for the family, no rush, no pressure.

Chowmi has asked to see some finished swivel rifles so I will post a few of the nicer ones that I have done over the years."

Pikelake,
I want to apologize for not returning your email and phone call last year.  I was quite sick for most of the year.  Building guns was the furthest thing from my mind. I try to respond to anyone who tries to get in touch with me.  I have located a swivel breech kit.  If you want it it is yours.  Call me on my cell phone tomorrow 603 491 3341

Daryl and t.Caster,
Thank you for the kind words. I like to show some of my rifles from time to time, glad you enjoyed them.

Chowmi,
John Ryder, (Kingsbury Arms) came here for a visit Sat. and he gave me some lessons on my computer.  so I will try and post a couple more pictures.

I told him I would like him to continue building my swivel breech kits.  I know he is capable of doing it.  He is going to think it over and I am sure he will let everyone on ALR know when.
