This, my first blog post, is rather intimidating. I am a retired correctional sergeant and disabled veteran. I love to work on and bring back to functional life old tools and old, curio and relic firearms. That means firearms that are more than 50 years old. I have been working on a few in my little shop. I really enjoy working on gun stocks and making old rifles and shotguns shine again, although my last few projects have been 3 very different revolvers and 1 pistol, all more than 110 years old!
Just a retired veteran and firearms enthusiast, living in on the South Coast of Oregon, smack in the middle of hunting, fishing, and clean coastal air.
