Jud Brennan along with his sons Jesse, David, and Seth are truly among the most talented contemporary muzzleloading artisans and have produced a wide variety of pieces. Their work is highly sought after with examples found in some of the finest gun collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Extremely fine overall with light handling and storage marks. Aside from a minor hairline crack in the ramrod groove on the forend cap, the stock is very fine and has crisp checkering and light handling and storage marks. Mechanically excellent.
