Nice to hear, I used to guide in Montana and have built rods and of course
tie flys.  Nothing like catching a nice trout on a fly you invented.

Believe it or not, I live in a town that won't allow me to own a handgun.  I
have several old rifles, shotguns and handguns that are beautiful pieces of
work.  There's no danger to anyone but city folk are trouble.
Ever tried to refinish a walnut stock or replace one?  I am close to doing
that to have a better looking piece of wood on a rifle.  Nice fancy Walnut
looks great on an nice gun.

Good luck.
