Ian really is a remarkable craftsman - he took an original we both liked as the basis for the architecture and mounts and incorporated influences from 200 years of great southern gunmakers into his own unique interpretation. Everything is just really beautifully designed and neatly executed.
Great rifle. I had the privilege of handling it. It handles very nicely. I would not have put it down, but I was forced. This rifle is a masterful showing of both recreating the architecture of a known iron mounted gun and of Ian Pratt's evolving contemporary style.
As always truly beautiful work!!
