This is a gorgeous piece of leather craft. I only make smaller things. This is very time consuming and unfortunately, it is hard to sell for decent amount. I did make few buttstock jackets. Those are quick to make.How bout this one, Mike. My brother, Mike, made this one. Since I bought the 2nd 30-40 Krag from him, he made this saddle scabbard for the one with the scope on it.
Funny story... My dad owned the first 30-40 Krag, no scope and original cadet model, and I bought it from him for $50 bucks. A few years later, when I was out chasing girls and partying all night instead of hunting, I sold that 30-40 to my brother Mike for 50 bucks. Forty years later my brother asks if I'd like to buy back that old 30-40. I asked how much? He said "50 bucks". Done deal! Plus I bought his other 30-40, with a scope and refinished stock, for $75 (he threw in the scabbard that he hand made). The owl is the brand of our ranch in K Falls.
