FOR THOSE THAT APPRECIATE FIREARMSCLICK ON PHOTO FOR FULL SIZE
|
| A current engraving project for a friend, before and after. It is a Model 55 Winchester a 94 variation, beginning in 1924 and only being produced for about a decade. It has a 24" round sporter barrel, 3/4 tube, and shotgun butt plate, available in all the common rounds of the 94 popular in that day, 30 30, 32 WS, etc. Rather an uncommon model to be found.
I would note all work was accomplished with files and paper, NO power tools were used. It is not quite ready to engrave, but close.

| This pistol came from a friend of Armand Swenson, who handled selling some of his last guns. It sure does look "dated," when compared to the current combat guns, no? In it's day though, a finer gun could not be found. Some what subjective, but I am not sure if a finer one can be found at present.
I don't really like the rear sight all that much, but this gun won't be sold or traded by myself.

| 63 Winchester, in the hard to find 22 LR. This gun has some smoke damage, a perfect restoration project. Will take a bit, but I will show the results when complete. Really unusual is the bore is near mint on this rifle.

| Totally original 1911/A1. I picked this gun up "back in the day", when 175 bucks seemed to be robbery for such an example.
As you may know, such a nice example would bring several multiples that amount at present. The streaking comes from age, likely at one time, this gun was oiled and stored away, thus the streaks.
