Here is a little history of behind this custom .22 cal golden boy gun I have carved.
In the area where I live. The ranchers still use brands to identify their cattle. It seems like they will brand almost everything they own. There are homes that have walls dedicated to the brands handed down through the years from generation to generation. The brand will be changed slightly from the original design to indicate the current owner of the ranch.
This gun is no different. The owners daughter brought the gun to me and asked if I could create a design using this farmers particular brand. I have used the high speed Paragrave tool to sculpt and carve this design. The carved basket weave, on the forend of the gun, wraps around to the other side making it possible to grip the gun better. This gun will be given back tothe owner as a Christmas present from his daughters.

Hi Deb, I’m very Impressed with Steve Coons shotgun, your art design, layout, relief carving and the finish all look fantastic. Deann called me today after you had delivered the gun to her and she was also very impressed with the fine details that you put into your work, I am exited to see it in person ( I guess we have to wait until Christmas Eve at our family party ). I just wanted to pass that on to you as a little feed back. Look forward to meeting you someday, keep up the great work, Greg
Hi Greg;
Thank you for taking the time to send me an email. I appreciate your compliments. It means a great deal to me to hear what others have to say about my work. The shotgun turned out very well. I am excited to start my next project. I have been given the opportunity of carving mule deer on a weatherby. I believe that is the gun the man said he wants this pattern put on. Pictures will be forth coming… Thanks again and Merry Christman! Deb
