This stock was cut from a piece of stump-wood curly maple that I had been saving for twenty-years to build a special rifle for myself.
The silver inlay and wire is sterling silver.
The lock and release plate are Damascus steel. Notice the piercing in the trigger, this is something I have done many times.
The barrels are 30″ long, both 54 caliber rifled. The finished rifle weighs just under 8 lbs.
The carvings are all done in high relief.
The butt plate, trigger guard, tang, swivel plates and barrel are all high relief engraved with the background matted out.
