Congratulations on having number 1. Both guns are superior examples of his work I am sure. I think he is one of the more under rated or at least unknown gunsmiths of his generation. Do not know if it is by his choice while living or just how little remains of his work. His talent level was extremely high none the less. I have seen several of his guns that he was thought to have built, engraved and finished all on his own. They were all as near perfect as they could be in fit and finish. But I guess if total lifetime production is only a few hundred custom guns he is just going to remain mostly unknown and under appreciated.
I guess my reference to O-checks (Obama checks or gifts of government money) went over peoples heads. Spent most of the day doing taxes. What my wife and I paid in taxes makes me both sick and poor at the same time. Good thing I do not own number two or I might have to sell it.
