I recently had an e-mail from someone who knows Earl very well and he passed on the fact that Jack O'Connor had nine rifles stocked by him during his lifetime.  ****************************** "We do not exaggerate when we state positively that the remodelled Springfield is the best and most suitable "all 'round" rifle".......Seymour Griffin, GRIFFIN & HOWE, Inc. | |||

Educate me please. If I wanted to get a stock blank in the same wood - what would I call it? Is it just mineral steaked walnut? RELOAD - ITS FUN! | |||

I'd call it medium honey quartersawn english with dark mineral streaks. That Burgess/Milliron rifle is a beauty and a piece of American custom gunmaking history. ______________________________ "Truth is the daughter of time." Francis Bacon | |||

What Forrest said. I have a similar blank hanging in my shop that I procured from the Dressel's. There's plenty of similar wood to be had from any of the wood dealers out there. | |||
