It's a fine production, but for some reason it starts 5 minutes in.

Rewind to get the full show!

This video should be required viewing for anyone who shops for price rather than quality in gunsmithing work.

The amount of time that goes into any high quality double is staggering. Here is a list of labor that goes into the FINISHING ALONE of a Holland double.

I assure you that nobody is "milking" any of this work.

That might be total time in the rust cabinet and carding. It takes a while.

Best,
