Quite a set Gary. The old is something else.

Wow....very nice! Was that Husqvarna action contoured by the gunsmith? That is beautiful.

derekr that is the factory contour of the Husky model 33. It was designed as a light bird gun for shooting grouse out of trees in Europe. They are a dainty rolling block action in low pressure cartridges. I had contacted Jerry trying to locate a Gove lever as Dave @ Lonestar had quit casting them. Jerry has had some health issues and told me he had a couple Goves he was going to sell. Both were complete but lacked final steel finish. He sent me pictures of them and the little Husky. When I saw the countours and checkered pistol grip as well as the full stock with cleaning rod I decided I had to have it.
I cant wait til they get here so I can fondle them.
Jerry has another RRB with Gove conversion if anybody is interested. It is a std forearm Gemmerized 45-70 on an original sporting action. Not cheap but Jerry does some pretty nice work

Really impressive set Gary. And you couldn't have picked two more classic calibers. -Lee www.singleactions.com |
