Stunning trio in that rack. I love those long splinter forends with the ebony schnable tips on the high-grade Foxes & this one is outstanding!

I'd sure like to see these guns in person. Thanks for sharing them here & have fun with these wonderful guns!!

That's a sweet lineup Brian! Chris is a great guy, and does some of the the best work I've ever seen, wood and metal! I only wish I could apprentice under him and learn more. I've shot birds with him and enjoyed a Chinese lunch a couple of times now. He's an artist and a true gentleman.

Chris,AZ

Those are some nice pieces of wood there! (Not to mention, some beautiful guns, too.)

Beautiful line-up, Brian.

Does the 34" barreled DHE have a safety?

No safely slot cut from the factory, an original target live bird.
