    Very nice! Did you clean it and prep it for blueing yourself? Or does Paul do that for you?

    Paul preps and has the hot blacking done professionally.
    The preparation is 90% of the work.

    Photographs don't show to true depth of finish.
    Repariere nicht, was nicht kaputtist.

    Agree entirely, and his prices are very reasonable.

    I bought a Longbow advertised as a project. I sent the action to Paul and the stock to Nath92 - rifle now looks better than new.
