Mark Elliott:
This Sherwood is a beautiful curly figured Walnut full stock rifle. in 38 caliber featuring a 44-inch tapered barrel starting at 1 inch at the breech and being ¾ inch across the flats at the muzzle.  This rifle is unique having the carved cap box, trigger guard, butt plate, carved wear plate along with the ribs, tubes, and end cap all being made of German silver.  We have found two order forms from Greer and Laing where Sherwood ordered German Silver gun mounts and this is one of the rifles Sherwood built with the German Silver.   This unique rifle also includes 8 coin silver inlays
