A few of us apple knockers from the finger lakes region of NY state are lucky to know Jim, handle his gun art, shoot clays together and drink a beer together. Jim is a true master in every sense of the word. His engraving is only one of his many skills. He is a master gunsmith and stock maker. He cuts his scroll without a layout pattern, just by eye, unbelievable,! His gold inlays are without equal. He has engraved rabbits on a Winchester 22 that you would swear are alive. I only wish I could own one of his masterpieces. That being said Jim is extremely modest and approachable. Craig Larter

Jim is old world trained in nearly all aspects of gunsmithing and is a joy to talk to and to hear the stories has has to tell from his many years in the industry.

Jim D. sent me a couple pictures of AAHE 28 Gauge P242510 per below. Not high resolution, only about 100K per picture but you get the idea.

If he sends me more, I'll post them too.

I believe, judging by the quail and woodcock, that is the one we had on display in the PGCA booth that year I mentioned earlier in this thread.
