Custom Carved Thompson Center .50 cal Muzzleloader

The final piece for  December 2011 was a custom carved Thompson Center .50 cal muzzleloader. This gun stock has turned out spectacularly if I do say so myself! The gun is another Christmas gift from a girl friend to her special guy. WOW, what a present huh?

I was commissioned to create this one of a kind master piece. I was told he liked eagles. So, on the hunt I went to find the right pattern for this gun stock. The pattern I decided on is of our National bird the Bald Eagle. The man this gun has been custom carved for is an ex airforce man, thus making this treasure very meaningful for him.

I have custom carved/engraved one other bird which was also a bald eagle. Both turned out beautifully. This gun was fitted with a custom pattern, carved with all the detail I could put in such a small space. Then hand painted to bring out all that wonderful detail. Giving this gun a very unique look. I have been told it already has a place of honor in his home. I wonder if he will hand down this gun to his children. It would make a very unique heirloom.
