Very nice

Never had any inlines myself. Sidelocks only.
I was thinking about having a one-and-only
rifle built some years ago after I'd been using
and hunting with B.P. guns for a few years,
but even back then all the builders I'd talked
to only wanted to turn out really nice top end
highly embellished and artistic masterpieces.
Nobody wanted to build a rifle to drag through
the briars and creek bottoms with a plain
stock with no figure and no inlays and such.
Used to could buy a suitable factory made
job that would work fine with maybe the
smallest of tweaking and clean up.
All that stuff is fairly rare these days.
Seemed to start after Turner Kirkland
left the building
