I've posted pics of her before, but not since finishing all of the engraving. Alas she now resides in another'e safe. A bit of seller's remorse, but there will be others. Of course you only have one first, and this was my first rifle ( built by me).

Hope you enjoy,

by the looks of it you got quite a divorce settlement

NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can tell you from personal experience, you will be a vastly lucky man if in 5 years you can think back on this day of separation without tears.

I can only hope it was done out of dire need, or as the initiation of a business making and selling such beautiful work. With what I know now (too late), I could not have done it without my wife behind me with the muzzles of her loaded 16 gauge strong against my spine.

Yes, but as Butch stated; I expect you came out rather well in the divorce settlement...

Baily, do you still build a break open single shot? I didn't see anything about it on the web when I checked your site. DW

Bails, with the lavish engraving and wood carving, I think you should consider a 2nd home in Ferlach !! :-)

Exquisite!

PS: Now if you could only get rid of Larry!

Mr. Bradshaw, I've watched all your online builds and for one man to have as many talents as you have are beyond me. For Gods sake hold the camera still so we can take it all in... .
