Hooks posting was in route from CAR to RSA. Arrived RSA Fri. Visited with him for a moment.
Some interesting stuff as he was up in the area where the poachers were up to no good on elephants. We I will hear from him after a bit of R n R no doubt.

OK

biebs you have email

Larry,

Bailey had your rifle at our North Texas SCI Chapter expo and banquet this past weekend. Man, that rifle is a true work of art. I really like the Ivory accents. You'll have a real family treasure once you take delivery.

I took some pics but won't post them unless you and Bailey give the go ahead.

Todd

Todd,
it shoots as good as it looks too. i know i got to shot it

Todd
Thanks
You can post pictures anytime
Yes the ivory was a cool addition.
Since Bailey would not install the flashing lights or curb feelers.
The gun is to be off for case hardening in the next few days.
Bailey is also sending me the regulation target.
If I know Bailey they will be perfect.
I have not seen the gun since Jan at Dallas
He had engraving and stock work to complete.
Iam so glad you like the gun, as you know it is one of a kind. And I am very proud to own one of the very first of Baileys big bores.

you may own it but i have already shot it naner naner naner

Here ya go!

What I find amazing is Bailey's multiple talents. Artist, craftsman and machinist. Maybe some day I can afford the field grade version

Thanks so much
I think others will also enjoy these pictures.
Wont be long now.
Larry

Let's call it "Leroy" :-)

I think Leroyann would be a better name for it

No, that's how we refer to the owner! I wonder if Russell make the Thula-Thula in blue suede? :-)

ya with a pink feather boa

Hook
Hate to disappoint you all but went to Santa Fe and sold all the Boa's and glitter covered items I had.
Might take the money and buy some of those pants with the legs you an zip off.
Only problem very poor color choices
Larry

who needs zip off legs I just take the dam leg off

Nice looking piece of work there.
If you can't bring yourself to shoot it, let me know and I will for you.

Larry, you'll have to grow some hair on those legs before you start thinking about shorts. They look like an "After" picture for a NAIR commercial!!! :-)

Just an Update on my Bradshaw Falling Block Double
This is the regulation target 50 yards the cells are 1/4" Not bad.

The action is at Turnbull's having the case harden work done. Should be back in 2 weeks. Then Bailey needs to put the front site and just finish touch up work.
I should have it in about 3 weeks.
Larry

Wow! That some good work with the dremel!

Bailey he dont own no Dremmel tool
Just a very good drill index set.
I guess THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS.
3/4 INCH and Dead even horizontal.
I would dare say not even those $200,000 doubles could match that performance out of the box.
Great work Bailey
Larry

Bailey will gladly take more cash for it if you are offering Larry i know for sure you got the deal of a lifetime on that rifle!!!!!!! and i got the second best deal of a life time it's good to be able to call people like Bailey my friend. since i'm opening a new gem stone business i think i may have to hang a nice thank you rock on Baileys lovley wife for putting up with me hanging around the shop

ps some one please load the new pictures so i can see them or email them to me BAILEY!!!!!!!!
PS i'm in kenya at the moment. looks like ethopia and tanzania soon to

Hooker, you'd need something like the Hope Diamond to make things even for putting up with you!!! :-)

ya i know

Just waiting for the phone call that it's ready to ship.
Should be any day now
Larry

Awesome rifle. I'd love to see more photos from the top, bottom etc.

I will even buy a new camera to take pictures with
My old one is not working well now anyways
Hope I can afford at least one ore jumbo hunt to use it.
Larry

Hook, you should get to name larry's rifle. It has enough of your DNA on it to be your kin.

I would like to know what you guy's are talking about
I think that gun is just a dream or a figment of your imagination.
There is no such gun
If anybody really sees it let me know
Larry

her name is rocksie because she's going to rock some critters world. that thing is an animal destruction device. the triggers are smoother than a babies butt. the balance is better than almost any rifle i have ever shot( almost because all Baileys rifles a balance perfectly) also naming her that because i have got my rocks off caressing her during the build

Now is the time to `fess up Hookie! Tell him that you've got it with you and that you won't be back till fall.

Mike,
you have know idea how bad i wish i had my Bradshaw 450 /400 gun with me now. but i'm on the list
I don't think i could get power to where i'm at to operate the disco ball and lazer lights that Larry wants on his gun. and the dam curb feelers would get hung in the wait a minute vines to much

Hook, that's a pretty long line of women in front of you :-)

anyone know how Larry's toy is coming along???? have not heard from Bailey in awhile

Why is a picture of Gene Simmons eating a cow's nose on Larry's rifle?

Well the real deal
Its a Lion "French Kissing" the Buffalo.
I am waiting to hear when the action will be delivered back to Bailey from Doug Turnbul
so he can make the final adjustments.
Larry

dang how long has turnbull had it??? seams like forever i wonder why he's taking so long????

He must know it's Larry's :-)
