I didn't pick up on that. It is so dark I presumed it was a really dark ebony. That's even morwe impressive!

Amazing work Brian! I love seeing this gun returned to splendor.

Congratulations to the owner- who had the foresight to see what it could be, and also to Brian for making that happen! Another remarkable save from the Patron Saint of All Lost Guns. Not a single wrong turn on this one and a return to service of a very special example of Lefever history. Just beautiful, and it's even better in person!

What a beauty Brian! Bravo. And I love 26" guns so that wouldn't have slowed me down on that one even a little. I really like the horn trim; that stuff is really tough.

Masterfully done. Very nice indeed.
