If a person wanted to describe pillars as ferrules then Mauser was the first to use “pillars”. Or, so no one misconstrues what I’m saying… single pillar / stock ferrule at the rear tang. No need, or room for a front “pillar”….I’ll let you guess the year.


I am the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father but by me. John 14:6
