SmallBore;
Beautiful action and from what I can see of the new work the gun will be likewise. Very fine original English scroll that only a few English engravers today can replicate, not to mention that almost no one anywhere can carve such lovely hammer gun action fences as this one, certainly not the Italians- as their modern hammer guns demonstrate (IMHO).
Additionally the action appears to be mostly as new. The finished product will be a rare jewel.
Is it worth the kind of money that is being spent? In my Opinion--Yes.
