[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2088757, member: 75451"] Tarponhead, I respectfully disagree. As seen in 10 pages of posts, it is “in the eye of the beholder”! A custom gun could be exactly as you described, but totally useless as a “gun” if the bore were sealed with molten steel. You described a beautiful firearm, near useless in a real world hunting scenario.....unless you won yesterday’s lotto. On the flip-side, a purely utility (SS, Synthetic Stock, ect.,ect.) if made from the ground up by a credible gunsmith, to very tight, accurate tolerances....is still a custom firearm. Some people view the Mona Lisa a work of art......I wouldn’t want it in my home! memtb [/QUOTE]
