Seeing Cottonstalk's new toy inspired me to start this thread. I know most of you have posted beauty shots of your guns in the bragging board, but let's post 'em here in one thread -- a gun gallery if you will. You Freedom guys have some of the most beautiful revolvers built -- let's see 'em!

This one aint flashy but it's my new favorite in my arsenal. I carry it in a hip holster and it rides nice and shoots straights. I've been carrying it the past couple weeks bear hunting.

I love the grips on that BFR Whitworth, maybe once I get some help in the shop I'll get back into making grips. I was just starting to get into it when I decided getting my FFL seemed like a good idea.

Stock SBHH in 45colt. Something about this gun just "feels" right in my hand. The hunter grip frame is my favorite. MN

Some fine looking wheelguns and Single shots so far!
Noticeably absent: long range thumpers from Ernie, custom TC furniture from Tex, the FA family of 500WE, and James' collection of well, everything...one of my favorites from his is the TLA. How 'bout it JFJ?
Gotta go, turkeys await

Not sure how beautiful, but a lot of hours were spent laying up bondo over a factory stock and cutting, sanding and painting. Just dropped the 223 action in last night with a 3-9 rifle scope. Look out gophers: 
Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.
