Very nice rifles but IMO so "candy" that their place should be in owners showcase cabinet.

Fantastic craftsmanship, very nice wood, metalwork and engraving. Personally.. I prefer something more subtle like rose and scroll or a light scroll.

They certainly are wonderful examples of the gunmaker's skill. I would not want to say anything the slightest bit negative about them. I have a brother in law who loves guns with a lot of bling. Personally I would rather have a top quality gun with just a bit of engraving and a nice patina from actual use.

Most certainly agree there!
Absolutely wonderful pieces of art in the finest metals & wood! I would be mortified to use one in the paddock...heaven forbid a scratch. I'm cringing at the thought....
In a way it is a shame as they most probably will never fire a shot in apart from sighting in,

So nice.

I'd love to see them on the bench.
Beautiful rifles!



Cheers

Can anyone guess at a possible price per unit?
