In Houston, Tx. in the 'sixties, there was a place on the Gulf Freeway that had a giant Polar Bear on top of the Building. It was Glen Slade's Gun Clinic. I was too young to go there myself and by the time I could go the business was gone. A fellow by the name of Wayne Barnett worked there for a while, and was reasonably well known in the area. He later went out on his own and he billed himself as a "Master Gunsmith". I happened upon one of his creations sometime after 2000'. It is my understanding that he did the stock and metal work himself. Anywho, I do not shoot it much these days, but chances are my kids will have to let it follow someone else home.

I bought my first hunting rifle, 700 in 7 mag in Glenn Slades. I remember the Polar Bear.

Awesome rifle GDub! You bring back a great memory. My father took me to Glen Slades when I was a young boy just to see the Polar Bear. I remember looking up at that bear in awe at how big it was. Seemed like it stood up about 10 feet tall.

That’s pretty good stuff Shrapnel! I think Teddy R really liked the 45-75 quite a lot. Wrote a bit about his rifle in his elk short story book.

How are those stocks when it comes to a quick snap shot on something?

That's amazing. I've got an very similar mauser like that from Heym in Germany that was imported into the states as a store chain brand.
