.450/400 and .30 flanged two barrel set Rising Block double. Finished and shipped today. It’s headed straight to Namibia with its owner next week.
The carved scenes one each side of the action are two different species of acacia the customer requested. Something unique and personal. Prior to engraving and finishing the .30 flanged barrels, it’s owner had taken a nice eland and wanted the same engraved on the rifle as well

Great news to hear one of Bailey's rifles is being used as it should!
I wish the new owner great success on his safari.

That is one fancy piece of kit - beautiful timber selection!
Engraving is a very personal thing, wonderfully done.
Thanks for the photos John, I hope we see a lot more of these rifles being used in the future, incredibly well thought out design
