Might be made by the same trio, but these are not the same rifles pictured. Both are amazing work, but I think these to be two differnt actions The Burgess/Echols has an obvious milled round slot from a peep sight on the rear base and the one in quetion is sloped at the rear.

I was speaking of the first set of pictures, not the later "how to" set. But as I said, I can't always trust my eyes. ------------------------------- Some Pictures from Namibia Some Pictures from Zimbabwe An Elephant Story | |||

Jeffe, go to the thread that Charles indicated on his link. Scroll up to the top and you will see the same rifle. BTW, it is not a trio, "Tom" is also Burgess, so it is a duet. Doubt if they can sing a lick though. | |||
