WOW those are absolutley gorgeous guns!!

Funny how the media works these days. Out of curiosity did anyone else know Clapton was a gun collector/ hunter? I haven't followed him as much as I used to, but I am still a huge fan and had no idea. Pretty neat stuff, as nice of art work on the guns as I have seen.

Thanks for putting them up Chan.

As featured in this month's Garden & Gun, ROLLING STONE's Chuck Leavell runs a swanky, upscaled, south Georgia quail lodge (as if there's any other kind). Pretty cool.

Only problem is I THINK??? Chuck leavell is the piano player for the stones? I know he has a very large Pine plantaion in Georgia. I have read quite a bit on him and his plantation and he seems like a pretty good guy. We need more people like this in the music/entertainment biz.

Also as a tidbit, he is the one that wrote the piano for the allman brothers classis Jessica, what I consider to be his finest moment.

Chuck Leavell is definitely the keyboardist for the Stones.

Chuck Levell is a stand up guy! Lives down near Macon, GA. His sister was a drama teacher for me and I met Chuck a couple of times...couldn't get him to get me tics to the Stones, though. Last time I saw him he was wearing jeans, cowboy boots and a mossy oak t-shirt.

Wish I had Clapton's money; then I'd have those guns!

Cool Story
You don't think of a guy like Clapton having an interest in fine shotguns.
