In reply to Ebidis: Not sure how to reply to your post...so I guess this will have to do for now until I figure it out- Thanks for the compliment; it's a Horseman. I've seen your Emerson's before, very nice collection ya' got
And yeah, I've been lurking around the Emerson sub forum for a while now.
Cool. You should post yours and say hi. Good bunch of guys over there.

Same here!
I think bone and antler look like nasty scabs. Wood is fragile and finicky. And not a fan of brass as it looks nasty when it patinas.
But a CF traditional, or even better a CF/Ti traditional could get me going.
Nor me
Here's one with that darn finicky, fiddly wood stuff on it!![]()
OK! Please fill us in on what exactly has been done to that beauty? I have one on the way and it should be here tomorrow actually. Thanks in advance!
If it wasn't for that freaking cloud shield I would've probabely picked a 73 or 23 up by now. I would love a cocobola with a pen secondary like yours minus that shield, they have produced those with some of the nicest cocobola that I have ever seen.
Congrats on the new GB!
This one was acid etched and stonewashed by Josh at Razor Edge Knives, and then Steve Ketchen of sketchenscales made OD canvas micarta scales with cut outs matching the milling in the liners, and standing flush with the edges, along with a geared, natural G10 backpacker.
It's about half an ounce lighter than the stock GB, too, now.
Osage has never done anything for me. I like the darker woods with really defined thick grain, but I actualy love the hot dog shield.Osage Orange with hotdog.....?![]()
