The Black Mamba rides again!

I friend of mine's been carving stocks lately (mostly thumbhole 10/22, A-bolt, Remy 700, and 1911 pistol grips) and been bugging me to let him do one for me. But, I don't have anything nice enough IMHO so I gave him my 30-30 that stays behind the seat. It's probably my favorite rifle and been a constant companion for years. Anyway we picked out some black walnut and he went to work. Yesterday afternoon I got it back and was blown away! This is the first time he's done this snake skin pattern and I must say it turned out great. I wish ya'll could see the highlights as the pics don't do it justice. And I still got a few days left in primitive weapon season to try it out. :D

Is that your initials on the bottom of the pistol grip?

Needless to say, There are several of us who would like his information. Can you post it up with his approval or PM me with it.

I'm interested also. Is it possible to have a list of what he can carve?

Daddy has an older gun that he hand carved himself. But it didn't look anything like that! That's beautiful!
