IMO A.O.Zischang was one of the best gunmakers, he was skilled in barrel making, wood and metal work. This rifle is way better in real life, one of, if not the best single-shot sporting rifles I have ever had the privilege to have handled.

Somehow, Destry- I think you'll be forgiven forthwith. Just noticed that ol' Homely Joseph outranks me- he's a two star sidewinder- ooops- sidelocker. RWTF

My buddy has Axel Petersons personal Ballard target rifle made by Zischang . That rifle has some of the best wood and woodwork I have ever seen,with a beautifully detailed ebony forearm tip and other detailing. My friend got the rifle from his dad who got it from the guy who bought it from Axel Peterson. The rifle came with about 4 pages of notes and description written by Mr. Peterson,outlining the rifles history. I ended up with Mr.Petersons surface guage and some other tools he used.
