I like that mid-barrel peep sight. Cool.

I don't like his signature line, though.

Beautiful! And I'll bet that big open peep sight down on the ramp a ways really works.

True old world gunsithing skills. CNC machined metalwork and a plastic stock screwed on can't compare to this. It's sad what the rifle buying public will accept now days. I stared at the photos and could not find a flaw. Amazing!

He even made his own screws, springs and grip cap!

CNC machining only reduces labour. It still has to be hand fitted and finished.

H&H, Purdey, Wesley Richards and Hartmann & Weiss - all use CNC as a quick start. Most are outsourced.

You think he’ll build a .577NE?

He ignores the reality. Economic value protects wildlife. My guess is he's not been to Africa. Though it is a unique business model for a gunsmith.
