so much obvious talent wasted.

Think of the hours that took. But, I think I will pass.

This artist marched briskly......but to a very different drummer.

some punjabi in india spent too much time on this one

Anybody named Fritz? I'm afraid that was probably a labor of love and bears a face only it's mother could love. However if it was inletted for a WBY it'd probably sell I bet the guy had some talent though.

I ran across that a couple of days ago.........I have never seen anything quite like it...........and such a good price, can't figure out why anybody hasn't bid on it

He is most likely right, won't see another. Looks like some of that stuff in the Indian Shops On some London side street. Hog Killer is
looking for a stock for an action he wants. He'll Love it.

Id like to see a 1957 Buick road master front grill and bumper inleted into a weatherby stock. Now that would be Sweet!!!

Actually if he hadn't carved it and had done it up in a really old full length mauser like a 1888, it would have had possibilities for a repro of a rifle like was used in North Africa and the Arabian Penensula for years. Butt stock would need to be different also.

I am not a big Weatherby fan so ugly is a ugly does. Somebody had too much time on their hands.

HAD A HELL OF A TIME TALKIN MY WIFE OUT OF IT.
She thought it was purty

Nice

If you just had three more just like it then you would have the legs for a really ugly table.

I wonder just how many hours all the work took.

Not my cup of tea .

One of a kind.

Thank God.

My Garsh ifen that aint the most fanciest fence post I ever got to see. Musta been so much work that, oh well just so much work that I'm at a loss for words.

My guess is it is either a drill gun, like for ROTC or it is in memoriam of the maker's son or something.
It was never designed to have a gun put in it.

Too bad I don't have a father-in-law named "Fitz".

Hey, haven't you guys heard of Picasso!! That may be one of his fine works and in about 50 yrs it could be worth mmmmmany dollars.. There is room for all at the top of their game.

Think mabey he should split it length ways, sand
the underside,frame in 2 frames and sell them as wall hangers.

Well, I'm no expert, but one picture seems to show that it has not been inletted, and I would expect that to be done before the inlay...

...so I'm betting it was a showpiece. Maybe something to put up at a booth or trade show for publicity. Lookie what I can do!

Or maybe they had WAAAAAAY to much free time!

Please, I just ate.

If anybody buys it we could build you a barrel action with imbedded sequins and rinestones????

Karl,

Please inlay my name in gold pearl shell on the stock, when you're done with mine, dress it up a little.
