I have to admit every time I log on, there is a little part in the back of my brain hoping Mr Dorleac will have started a new thread, although I appreciate the workmanship of the heavily engraved masterpieces that are regularly featured here, they aren't really my cup o' tea, it's more the working grade Oberndorf Mausers and Rigbys from between the wars that capture my imagination, Joel's rifles always seem to embody that essence of rifles that are beautiful to look at yes, but more than anything they just make me want to take one hunting, to me they are all a rifle should be.
