When you commission a true craftsman to build you a rifle and give very few requirements, but full authority to build out a masterpiece using their own experience and creativity, you take a chance. You have to believe in them. And.....anyone that knows me, understands that my standards are high. I placed that order quite a while back. I trust Rick. And let me tell you.....the entire experience was worth the patience. From the start, Rick called to give me a heads-up that the next build in line was mine. As he started, the pictures began to arrive to my phone via text of the process. ...impressive. Before and along the way, Rick took the time to understand what I wanted, and what was important to me. He took simple ideas I had and made them come to life. ...and he over delivered. Not only do I have a collection of great pictures documenting the process, but an amazingly well crafted longrifle that far exceeds and of my expectations in every aspect. I enjoyed the visit to Rick's shop this afternoon to pick up this masterpiece, and get a peek at a few other projects in the works. Overall, Rick is a true pleasure to work with, a man of great character, solid integrity, and a specialized skillset that speaks for itself. Highly recommend!

I'm sure the place is great but I after driving by twice I was unable to find it, also I called multiple times to no avail.

Rick is absolutely fabulous to work with. He made box calls for both my wife and I. The craftsmanship and tone are second to none. The inlay on both is stunning. Thank you so much for your attention to detail and constant communication.

Outstanding work, well worth the wait. Rick kept me updated through the whole build, and his work really speaks for itself. This is an absolutely beautiful rifle, I can't wait to get it into the woods. Thanks Rick!
