Description:
ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR FANCY CUSTOM BUILT AND ENGRAVED HIGH WALL .45-70 SINGLE SHOT SPORTER. This one was built by Mike Kuffler of Oklahoma and is photographed in the magazine GUNMAKER Journal of Custom Gunmaking Summer 2019/Issue 167. The thickside Highwall action was made by Ballard Rifle & Cartridge Co., Cody, Wyoming and is fitted with an adjustable single set trigger (unmarked except the the serial number 1XX). The entire action is profusely and expertly scroll engraved- sides, top, receiver ring, upper and lower tangs, bottom edges and upper portion and bottom of the lever. The lever, checkered steel shotgun butt plate and action are beautifully bone-charcoal color case hardened. The 28" half octagon barrel is richly blued and has a fancy transition milled into the barrel at the juncture of the round and octagon transition. The rear of the barrel behind the buckhorn rear sight is engraved and there is simple engraving on each side and in front of the globe front sight that will accept inserts. The pistol grip butt stock is sharply checkered and the bottom of the pistol grip along with the bottom of the schnable in the forearm have the traditional ebony wedge inlay Winchester used on their early deluxe rifles. the butt stock also sports a cheek piece with accent/shadow line. Target crowned muzzle. The forend is also checkered. the walnut would rate at least extra fancy and overall this is a simply stunning rifle. I don't recall seeing a more beautiful Highwall. All in like new condition. It would cost a fortune to have one like this built from scratch plus a few years wait time.
