If everything was left up to him, everything would still be original. Hasn't replied to any of my emails.

Hugh is getting long in the tooth now,still does some beautiful stocks,I've had him thread rifles for me but pretty sure he is only doing a day or two a week these days....I guess like many of the gunsmiths winding down,it's hard to find apprentice to pick up the slack,or just too hard to deal with the Hassel involved...
