hammerforged Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 So this Lady arrived yesterday. This is the rifle that is part of the set I am making the 1091 Bowie Knives for. Henry in 45-70 with hand engraved receiver by Barron's of London. This one is serial number 0257BISON1091. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2pMEjNZdDGMU19URTMyU3REWkk/view?usp=drivesdk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkoholic Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Beautiful rifle! I would be hesitant to even touch one off, but then what fun would it be just hanging on the wall. Not sure I'd take it hunting in the mountains for fear of banging it up. Can not wait to see the finished Bowie Knives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Very nice Ross. You got the last one made in the series, are they done with their production? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerforged Posted August 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Not even close - there will be a total of 1091 Rifles and Bowies produced - I chose serial number 0257 of 1091 because I was born February of 1957. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
