Your right Justin, I was very taken by this gun even before I uncovered the maker's name, especially by the workmanship & stock. I will also look up T. Woodward on internet

"One" of my hobbies for 50 some years has been gun-stock work & nearly all aspects thereof. Part of which having some nice blanks on hand. Without a doubt getting a stock made would be prohibitive for me even now. I will attempt to save the stock first and proceed from there. Might take pics. as I go along and get them posted as in thanks canvasback for today and maybe in the future if your willing, look what you started.

Well I'm off fishing but will hopefully get the stock stripped to-night. --- John Can.
