Behold "King David"! Welshans Inspired Rifle!

The Alaskan Sun is Returning! New Rifles are Afoot!

The return of sunshine to our Far Northern State means better light for photography and the right time for rifle makers and rifle enthusiasts to begin to shake off the lethargy of winter and think about summer and shooting and enjoying our muzzleloading heritage.

Jud has been busy this winter! A project recently completed and received by its new owner is a Welshans inspired rifle based on one in the Winterthur museum that we had the privilege to photograph 2 years ago thanks to our good friend Gary B.

A brief photographic journey documenting this rifle's creation follows.
