Pure art. In this mass produced world having a rifle that displays this level of craftsmanship is a blessing. You have a real treasure there.

Is that possible? I have semi- custom builds with the barrels made by Benchmark and Douglas. In both cases the sights were soldered on afterwards. I wasn’t given the option otherwise.

It has become a thing of questionable morality. Several recent report have highlighted how people choose death because of their socioeconomic status: https://theconversation.com/maid-and-marginalized-people-coroners-reports-shed-light-on-assisted-death-in-ontario-241661 The UN has criticized...

I have to agree with you. And I say that begrudgingly because I have always been a vocal critic of our political elite - having spent a lot of time fighting in court against them. But COVID seems to have had a strange side effect on our country in that it seems to run better. There are major...
