I saw this very interesting post on Facebook from good buddy Reeve not too long ago and I thought you fancy walnut aficionados might enjoy it:
Here’s my take on a Stevens Little Scout. I built it for my grandson from a rough original. The barrel has a new liner, and the stock changed to a pistolgrip. The forend changed from the lifeless little wedge to a Schnabel. The wood is Turkish walnut. I hot blued the metalwork. Engraving and color case by Mike Crumling.
Reeve, thanks for allowing us to share your artistry. I’d say your grandson is a lucky guy on many levels. That is a beautiful rifle, my friend.

I have a new in the box, never fired, Steven’s Favorite Commemorative with gold trimmings. Really a cute little gun. Steven’s makes some neat rifles.
Can’t really say more than just wow on that wood.
Yep, it really is beautiful.
Nice little rifle…reminds me a little of my first gun a 20 gauge breakdown shotgun.
