Brent I do not see such a problem Here.As the people On the BOD that was playing jury,Judge and God will not be on any BOD here. Just my opion. But let us not forget there is lots of other clubs member who would be interested. Not because they are mad at thers but just to belong to another sit to enjoy talking about SS and classic guns.

I'm in.

Would be welcome addition.

Recently attended a traveling exhibit at the Toledo Museum of Art, featuring the Best of the Best Furnishings from DuPont's Winterthur collection. From early New England 'William and Mary', thru to the highest forms of Baroque and Rococo, the icons of workmanship and style were there.

It has been said that great art can produce an emotional response in the informed viewer. After a few pleasant hours spent with the above collection, I will attest to that. And, the fine firearms field has no less greatness in it's aesthetics. Here's to future appreciation of the New Renaissance.


Relax; we're all experts here.

Count me in, especially if it's a Traditional Single Shot Rifle forum. I'm not much into repeating or single shot bolt guns

I think we're looking for more than that. There are single shot forums but there are no identified "early custom rifle" forums. Personally, I would like an "early and recent high quality custom rifle" forum without plastic and stainless.

I think Mr.Murphy's idea is the way to go, as it will give us access to the greatest number of really great firearms.I saw part of Dr.Smiths collection at a gun show in the early 70's in Wisconsin and I am still impressed.A custom gun forum could include the special order factory jobs too as well as the wonderful but relatively unknown work by makers Mr. Petrov specializes in unearthing.

How about single-shot bolt guns with set triggers like A.O. Niedner's "Hamburg" rifle below shown below.

I'll second that, "Early and Recent Custom Rifles" sounds good to me.

Sorry guys, did not mean anything by that comment other than the fact that I'm personally not into any type of bolt action guns, that's just a personal thing, I'll still participate but only with things like Traditional Single Shot Schuetzen type Rifles, mostly guns with two piece stocks like Hi-Walls, Rolling Blocks, Sharps, Martinis, Ballard, Stevens, even the Ruger No. 1's, etc. the good old Single Shots, seems like I cant get into things like bolt guns, to many moving parts I guess
