Something New From Jack DuPrey
« on: April 07, 2024, 02:23:03 PM »
My son and I had a great visit with Jack yesterday.

Jack showed us his latest "barn" gun.

Never seen a trigger guard made from "rawhide" before, but have seen one now.

Leave it up to Jack to always come up with something new and creative! Jack said he still needs to apply a sealer to the guard.

I had Jack's permission to post these pics.

Thank you for looking.

Regards,

Doug

Same here. Along with all the other stuff he makes. It’s a kind of effortless seeming, child-like creativity I wish I could tap into all the time.

Thanks for sharing the pics, and pass on a hello from me if you see him regularly!
