A very talented gunmaker
A friend that lives east of me was a premier knife builder. He is doing rifles now. He does it all from making damascus, machining the receivers, all of the stock work, checkering, engraving, and the rest. He does buy barrel blanks.

[DngBat7]

Not a gunmaker. That’s an artist.

Butch, what can I say about this? I'm speechless !
This has to be placed in the "Damndest Thing I've Ever Seen" File.
This type of work is in a class by itself.
Thanks for sharing this with us.

Thanks for the link. Bailey is a master in so many different areas it's hard to define him as anything but an artist. The price for that rifle is pretty cheap for what it is and the craftsmanship that went into it.

Bailey makes a double rifle in a falling block configuration. Pretty neat.

All I can say is if your stupid enough to buy something this expensive then count me in,LOL What unbelievable work. This guy is beyond talented. That deep cut engraving is out of this world. I would love to have the single shot in something like .218 bee or something close. Every single part is custom other than the barrel but even the screws are hand made. You just don't see that kind of attention to detail anymore. The best part is he is in Texas.
