Gentlemen:

I am delighted to see quality images of Selous side plates. On my "I'm gonna do that some day" list is to build a Farquharson with Selous side plates, and I have been looking for someone who actually has one who would take the kind of images needed to duplicate the plates.

For instance, where do the plates transition from being flush with the action, as they are at the tang, to being proud of the wood as they are at the rear?

They are also flush at the grip cap, but become proud further back on the stock.

How thick are the plates? That is something that is very difficult to get an idea of from the images.

If whoever owns this wonderful piece has more images of it, particularly detail images of the plates, I would be most grateful to see them.

Most respectfully,

Glenn Fewless
