 Don't know if I ever posted this. Bowen Longhunter with ovate barrel. 44 Magnum. Have added a set of LSCG walnut grips. Only addition I would make is a set of Snakewood grips. |

I've got a Horvath and a Tyler that I'll add shortly...had been waiting on the scrimshaw work to be done on the Horvath before I posted it, no excuse on the Tyler. Finally got to shoot both a couple Fridays ago prior to a tuesday surgery (figured I'd make the neurosurgeon earn his money)...both are amazing!!

Somehow I missed this awesome topic but it's very helpful to have different inspirational designs and particulars listed. I went through all of it last night and made some notes related to builds I am working on. I think it should be pinned to stay at the top of the forum.

Great stuff here. Where are all these guns now? Some were built over a decade ago.
