Marlin 1894 .44 Lee Hadaway Takedown Build

I'll get the name from Lee, but it's a craftsman in Colorado.

The wood is gorgeous !

That said , quilted Maple makes me think California style roll over , and leverguns crying for figured Walnut.

Its amazing when art meets function.

Where’s a listing to a 45LC I can jump on? This will seriously be a crown jewel for your families collection.

Crabby, find the rifle and send it to Lee. Or get in touch and he can find you.

And yeah, the only problem, which one of my sons will get it?

I may have to get him to convert my .338 MXLR in a few years. (Definitely not any time soon, because $$, OUCH!)

MTWoodson, the leather is by J Cusimano, his number is719-680-2532. Give him a call

Here are some recent pics of Lee's work. Two custom stocks he made, and a few he refinished. Just great work.

The 1873 in that photo is amazing. I cannot imagine what it would cost.

Your rifle is also a work of art. Very nice.

I'm salivating at the moment. I've been toying with the idea of a 45-70 Marlin for a while now, and now I'm REALLY thinking about it. I see it says call for pricing, and I'd imagine these things are not cheap, understandably so. Anybody have an idea of average cost?

Wild West Guns is getting around $3,400 for their complete takedown rifles. Could probably knock some off for sending in your own rifle.

This is what gun guys do instead of buying a Rolex.
