Is that your checkering work?

This checkering was done by Carol at Ahlman's in Morristown Minnesota.

Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt.

Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry
Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure.

Yes it is!!!
Mr Olson has routed all my stocks for several years.....

Once I got them from Fajen....actually drove to Missouri and made the deal with them in person....often taking my own wood grown on the family farm in southern Minnesota.

After Fajen went belly up and was bought out I never got another stock from them....I wasn't even allowed in their stocks to pick out blanks as I formerly did.

It wasn't until I found Mr Olson that I had fun building guns again, and have been delighted with his work ever since....

I really got ripped at GAG and Microfit..... I sent them beautiful wood and come back unusable!
