Roy's new Hudson Valley fowler

[John Tice]

Roy is just putting the final touches on my new fowler. I have to say that I am simply blown away with the job he did. I can’t say enough good things about Roy or his guns. I’ve always admired these Hudson Valley fowlers and after shooting flinters for 20 years I thought it was time to get one and shoot it. Roy, you did an awesome job and thanks for all the hard work :thumbsup: (by the way, he did the trigger, thimbles, front sight, and sideplate himself too)

Man, I could never load that! :haha: Really looks good though, is that a copy of one in the fowler book? :thumbsup:

Its drawn from a few, the time period we're going for is 1730s-1750s. Yeh, its just a tad on the long side. I really want to see how these handle for myself. It doesn't even weigh 10 pounds. The barrel is 55" and its a .69. Total length is 72 1/2" (taller than me). The stock is maple and the lock is a Davis. The butt plate and trigger guard are from The Rifle Shop.

It´s getting harder and harder for me to find proper words. :surrender:
Everytime I see the pics of a new piece of Stroh-art I think he can´t get better anymore. :nono:

Well, and then I see the pics of the next gun he made... :haha:

John,

I held this rifle in Roy's shop when it was in the white and couldnt believe the balance and the light weight of it. Roy definitely does nice work!
