Dose anyone have photos of any contemporary longrifles by Lloyd Norris to share?  He was from Western PA.

Didn't know Lloyd made rifles.
Had a barber shop. I lived in Tarentum, Pennsylvania when I met him a few years/decades ago.

I sold a lot of barrels to Lloyd.  He was probably better known for his miniatures, built a lot of them too...........Don

I will ask his son if he would share a picture of the miniatures and get a picture of the full size ones too

What are you wanting to know about Lloyd? I knew him and own a few of his guns.

I never had a chance to meet him, but I've heard from 3 people what an excellent builder and person
he was.  He also collected Shreckengost rifles which is one of my interests and at one time owned
the original rifling bench that Wm Shreckengost used to rifle his barrels. 
    I was hoping to see good photos of his work.  I've had 3 of his rifles in my hand and thought the
workmanship to very high quality.  I thought it would be good to pay tribute to his work by putting it
online for others to see.  Thanks

I have 2 of his miniatures and a 22-250 he built when that was still a wildcat round. I would be happy to exchange photos and info about his guns with you. Ive wanted for a while now to collect any info i can about his works and build a photo collection of them. Contact me by email so we can exchange info.

Your email isn't in your profile.  Mine is if you want to send one first.  Thanks
