I bought this rifle from a fellow member and it's become my favorite. The maker listed as 'Hunting Rifle .54', but to me it has the same simple grace as some Southern Mountain Rifles I've seen. He spec'd it thusly; ' The specs on this gun is a 38 inch 54 cal Charles Burton C weight swamped barrel. Lock is a Caywood wilson english lock that sparks really well and is like all Caywoods lock fast as lightning. The Red maple stock came from pecatonica. The brass hardware an trigger came from track except for the strap buttplate an sideplate which I made but was allowed to copy by Don Bruton. The front sight is a 1962 silver quarter.'
The rifle is light in weight and perfectly balanced and, to me, begging to be hunted.
