Santa Claus (Bama) just got to Ramer with my new CS rifle. I must have been a much better boy than I thought I have been. The rifle looks even better in person and yes it will be displayed at Joe Wheeler in January.  Bama said it will also be at the Cumberland show provided he can get me to let go of it.

I doubt that he could bring that fine piece to Cumberland. Poor thing, we’d hate for you to be without a gun for that long ;D

You guys are making me homesick for Alabama. Great people and great guns to play with, while I'm stuck at work. Merry Christmas from the western Wilderness, we'll see you at the Jim's show in January.

Well the rifle weighed 8.9 lbs when I delivered it, Tim has done rubbed a half pound off of this afternoon and grinning like a possum eating saw briars.

Yep, Tim sure likes his guns, especially really nice ones like that one and even the weird ones I sometimes send him. ;) The best thing is he uses them.

Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise trained in the metallurgic arts before straitened circumstances forced you into a life of aimless wanderin'?
