Have been following his post on another forum, the action itself fascinates me on it working, true craftmanship. His new single is also making my heart thump harder, now if I could only decide on which grandchild to pawn.

Biebs,
I live near "Mr Bradshaw" would be happy to pick it up for field testing on Texas pronghorns next week. You could just FEDX some ammo to me and I will even write up the field test for you at no charge.

CR,
I think it would take a lot to pry this from Biebster's fingers

he is all hot to trot with this beauty

he is in love & rightfully so,this is pure beauty compared to what he is used to,the fugly Blasers,let him bask in the warmth of this warm feeling

she is not only beautiful but I think she is way more athletic(stronger action) than any break action gun,she is unique & a masterpeice,the Biebster has found his nirvana

Hell he will have it for sale by the end of the week!

Seriously, beautiful gun Jon. Love the engraving, very different...

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

Just kidding, congratulations on an amazing rifle!

If that rifle ever has to share a cabinet with a Blaser lightning should strike whoever caused it.

Todd, I ordered special mounts for the double, so I can mount an 8x32-60mm Zeiss and give you some competition in your 1,000 yard matches :-)

Very curious how you like the handling of this action after you get some range time with it.

Words fail one, a cape rifle like that, 20-9.3x74r, would drive me insane with gunlust!

Biebs: Beautiful Rifle. Thank you for letting us look at your girl with her dress down. Very unquietly beautiful.

Stunning firearm it certainly is.

I think Beib's is rather chuffed that he finally has a firearm that other shooters find interesting AND attractive !!!!!!!

I hope that thing doesn't end up with a heap of scuff marks down the side where he automatically goes the "straight-pull" back looking for the bolt

Yes, there certainly must be SOMETHING wrong with it. I just don't see it yet :-)

Biebs, I'll do better than that, I'll even buy the ammo and make sure the rifle regulates properly for you. That should take only one hunting season to get it right, and back to you so you can be sure it will not blow up on you!

How's that for helping a friend out?

I find it inspiring Beiber has a new rifle worthy of glamor shots while sitting on a fence post instead of a rifle worthy of being a fence post for a change. (Blasers)

Nice rifle. I have a 28 ga. droplock from Bradshaw that I cherish!

That is a beautiful double rifle, but then any double rifle or shotgun that Bradshaw makes is always the same, BEAUTIFUL! He is a genius IMO!

I have to agree with Todd on this one. It is certainly not a fence post like some others mentioned here!
