A beautiful piece of work I am sure from some of the best, but I too am at odds with some of the features.
I realize it is a 'miniature' but the butt stock looks a bit too lean for my tastes. The whole package looks too slim to my eye, but thats just me. I understand the English single shot rifle look & the fact that it is a miniature but this one just took the diet a bit too far IMHO.
It needed a scope I guess for the caliber, but I wouldn't have picked the caliber and wouldn't have picked that particular scope mount base. It looks too bulky for lack of a better term on top of that trim action.
I don't care to the final effect of the engraveing /case coloring/ gold inlay/ grey tone finish. I'll bet it looked much better in the white. Perhaps a French grey finish would have done better on it.
I guess I won't be sending in my 28k for it.
Just my .02 and it ain't worth that!
