This action shows how you can really dress up a single shot action without breaking the bank! The action of this particular gun is engraved in American Scroll which would have been used at the time that this Rolling Block was manufactured.
These photos show a modern interpretation of the Hepburn rifle. These are very popular as both target and hunting rifles. However, today, most of them are used for target work.
The engraving shows an amount of coverage that would have been typical of either a hunting or target rifle of the 1890s. This style of engraving is known as American Scroll.
I can do any kind of engraving or scrollwork that you would require!
This particular engraving would run about $500.
It should be noted that this gun was in the white (not blued or case-hardened), this can add to the overall cost.
We do a lot of engraving for both cowboy action shooters and SASS shooters, as well as long range and scheutzen shooters. This allows your guns to not only stand out on the firing line, but also in the rack, and on the loading tables! It makes it easy to identify your firearm from all of the others.
Engraving adds a great personal touch to the firearm and connects you to a time since-past, when the well-heeled shooter had their guns customized.
This little action was in rough shape when I received it. It’s had the surfaces trued up and pitting has been removed. The engraving adds a nice finishing touch to a classic boys rifle from the turn-of-the-last century. The engraving adds a bit of class to what, otherwise, would be a very plain rifle.
This is a recreation of a Henry repeating rifle. It’s engraved in a style reminiscent of an original that was engraved in the 1860-1870 period. If you’re a cowboy shooter, it’s often handy to have your gun engraved so they stand out in the racks from all of the other rifles. I’ve seen, in the past, people picking up nearly identical rifles, get to the firing line, and realize they’ve picked up the wrong rifle! This isn’t likely to happen with a custom engraved rifle.
