Jack Very nice, you have a nice trophy there and all in good order, when is the inaugural range test? | |||

Forgot to say there is something strangely satisfying about gazing down the business end of a double, if only these old rifles could speak of their exploits of yesteryear, I wonder what animals may have seen those holes as their last vision on earth | |||

Hi JT, as soon as ammo is loaded.  So true what you say.Based on the caliber, this one was likely a TIGER KILLER!!!  Jack OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.} | |||

Jack, Very Nice! I'm sure the wait was worth it. I can't wait to hear if it shoots as well as it looks. Congrats! Bob DRSS "If we're not supposed to eat animals, why are they made out of meat?" "PS. To add a bit of Pappasonian philosophy: this single barrel stuff is just a passing fad. Bolt actions and single shots will fade away as did disco, the hula hoop, and bell-bottomed pants. Doubles will rule the world!" | |||

SWEET! The case coloring is fantastic.

Beautiful!!! I bet you did the same dance as the Bananna at the top of your post, when you got this back from JJ. He does nice work doesn't he? I am fortunate to live just 75 miles from Chanplin Arms. Love the "See my Muzzle" picture!!! It does make the hair stand up on your neck... Stephen Grant 500BPE Joseph Harkom 450BPE | |||

Thanks Bob, When it first got to me last fall, I had it at the range with retreever [Mike]. It shot nice tight groups. I expect that to be unchanged. We shall see, I am confident. Jack OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.} | |||

The case coloring is brand new, part of the work JJ did over at www.champlinarms.com - The rifle is pre WW II, and perhaps pre WWI Jack OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.} | |||

Jack: Congratulations and good hunting with your double. It seems your patience in finding the right one paid off. It is a beauty. When I hold a gun like that I wish it could tell me what it has seen and what it has faced. A beautiful piece of history! | |||

Jack, curious where you bought it. I might have owned this rifle at one time. George Caswell sold it for us. I might have serial number somewhere. Coloring was nice when i had it but not new so yours might be a different rifle. PM me if you wish York, SC | |||

THANKS Mike!!! To the crowd, Mike is the man who first gave me a chance to shoot a double rifle! He and I then have had D/R gatherings to shoot with others nearby (sort of) too. Doc 52 was one of those guys. I look forward to sharing shooting fun with MY rifle.  Jack OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.} | |||
