Nice, I like it... far better than the last 3 years of winchester!!

I like it too.

4.20 Kg of steel-appeal that handles and shoots as well or better than any H&H or J.Rigby, I'd guess. Very nice! Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! Good job on that one.

you should be a gunsmith

Good job!

I also like it.
well done indeed.
If you are young enough to learn a new trade you should consider it...tj3006

Im very happy, that all of you, very kind guys, like my poor s man D.G. rifle !!! In another post I will show my last development with a DWM 1909 Mauser Argentinian Model action.Thanks and Regards.

Nice work. I like it as well.

........Very Nice Guillermo ... I really like the shortened fore end , and the barrel band for the sling.....It is all nice .. the checkering looks just right ..The grip cap is very very nice ... I wouldn,t call it a poor mans DG rifle at all ...Remember you wouldn,t use a lamborgini to plow snow with ....You seem to have the touch for rifles .......

Thanks, Very Kind, this rifle took 3 asiatic buffaloes (3 bullets), has some scratches (see on crossbolts photo) formally "Hunting scars" and rusted from bloody hands, but I like that, those all marks were made hunting, not showing it or just shooting at the range !!!I if was Saeed I will be using a hight expensive double with gold and Ivory inlays and surely making new scars!!! That adds value to a hunting gun !!! But I dont-

Guillermo

Your rifle is a very nice working gun.
I like rifles that are field grade working guns.

Nice checkering on the cap.

Keep up the fine work.

Cheers,

André
