Artisan Bio

I have been building long-rifles since 1997. I am especially interested in guns made around Bethlehem, Salem, and Christians Spring. I particularly enjoy the gun-smith seminars held at Bowling Green, KY each year. Stocking from blanks and using period style hand tools is my preference.
