I am having TVM build me an Early Virginia Rifle with these specifications:
Chambers Virginia Lock
Rice 38 inch, .54 caliber swamped barrel, browned.
Walnut stock
Brass furniture
PB-6 single lid patch box
Sling swivels
I have a couple of questions regarding HC of the about choices. Should I stay with the single lid patch box or go for the wooden patch box? Walnut or go for the SP++ Maple? And finally would it be accurate to just have some light incise carving? I am thinking of some around the entry pipe, the lock and wrist, and on the butt stock. I would appreciate your insights, opinions and any references you can point out to me.
By the way, I have to say that Toni at TVM is a very gracious and kind lady, if you only knew how many phone calls and emails she has had to put up with from me not only about this rifle but the others I have purchased from them. I enjoy doing business with great folks like them.
Thanks.
