Description:
It is with great pleasure we present for your viewing enjoyment the American Custom Gunmakers Guild 2017 Custom Shotgun Project. Hopefully more than one of you viewing this gun will want to buy it. The project was designed so that the stock dimensions can be altered to fit the new owner. As you see, the craftsmen who worked on the project did a magnificent job of paying attention to the details. It is not only beautiful but functional as well. Functional Art.
Now for some particulars on this gun:
The original Simson Suhl 12 gauge shotgun ws donated by Mark Beasland.
Metalsmith duties were performed by Ed LaPour including new screws, barrels fitted and tightened to the receiver face, new Greener Crossbolt made and fitted, rust removed from internal parts, new hinge pin made and installed, springs inspected and, where needed, replaced. Ed did the initial shaping and outside metal alterations.
Bruce Farman removed the original engraving by filing and where needed micro welding. He then polished the metal to 220 grit sandpaper.
Watts Walnut donated the Extra Fancy grade Turkish Walnut stock blank.
Stockmaker Craig Libhart created a buttstock pattern and then made the buttstock from the semi-inletted blank and made the semi-beavertail forend from the block. He also fitted the metal to wood, finished the wood with Pro Custom Oil, and test fired the gun.
Using Craig's pattern, Gene Simillion machined the buttstock to reveal the beautiful stock you see before you.
Brain Board performed the checkering duties. The pattern incorporates several American Gunmakers high grade checkering patterns to make this beautifully proportioned design.
The engraving was done by Jim Blair in a scroll design tastefully covering the metalwork.
Doug Turnbull Restorations performed the color case hardening duties
Roger Ferrell did the rest of the metal finishing and final assembly. The barrels and trigger guard were rust blued.
Each of the craftsmen on this project team were chosen because of their known ability to pay attention to detail. The ACGG hopes you enjoy viewing these pictures (provided by Mike Morgan Photography). We invite you to invest in this one-of-a-kind firearm made for your shooting enjoyment.
Due to current IRS rules, the ACGG can no longer conduct raffles.
