Well, has anyone ever heard of a gunsmith by the name of ROSS PRITT? Rifle is out of Idaho Falls. Stock maker was pretty talented to carve that out of curly ash. No idea where the seller came up with Brazilian walnut.

Possibly an early Paul Jaeger rifle that was rebarreled? Dallastown is two hours from Jenkintown. That style of cheek piece does seem to have Pennsylvania roots.

Now, that could be, and you can check that by looking under the buttplate and in the barrel channel.
