WOW! You guys ain't no joke!

That's on totally another level - beautiful work... I know who I'm going to if I screw up my handles.

What kind of wood is that Bookie? It is a stunning rifle and the guy who paid $3800 for it got a deal. One more question.... Is that silver on the nose of the stock?
 
$3800:eek: Dang! Id have given twice that for that beautiful piece (assuming I had it:rolleyes:). Awesome display of workmanship right there:thumbup:
