Man, thank you guys, we both certainly appreciate it. I'm sure Tim does too, really nice horn that fit just right with everything else.
To answer the couple of questions, it is a .52 caliber rifle, the barrel length about 43" made by Ed Rayl.
The rifle turned out to be a real intense project. The only request Alan had made was that the gun would be a rifle and big enough of a caliber to kill deer with, which pretty much left everything else wide open. I suppose there is a certain degree of risk involved in this kind of scenario, where the person who the gun is being built for is able to have no preconceived ideas of what the outcome will be, not knowing the intentions of the rasp wielding maniac at the other end of the deal until the moment he first sees the finished rifle. I completely enjoy that kind of work.
