War Rifle
Thought it was time to leave my son his grand fathers 303. Wanted a wall mount so he could appreciate it more, plugged the barrel and threw something together. Turned out not bad for someone with no carpentry skills. Looks a little rugged with the bolts holding on the frame instead of glue or screws. Here's to all the vet's.

Looks perfect with the bolts. Great job and a wonderful thing to pass down.

Nice job! I dig it and I'm sure your son will, too. The long guns with sentiment are my favourite.
The first rifle I ever shot was a parker hale 303 ... it used to hang on the wall at my hunt camp back in Ontario while I was growing up. When I moved up to the Yukon I took it along as my grandfather told me that I'd need a good bush gun up here. It now hangs on the wall at my new Yukon camp - with its loaded clip safe and secure but never too far away. Somehow now that my granddad's gone the pieces that I got from him are all the more important.
