Cowboy Bowie

The precision of your work always amazes me.

When choosing G10 for a guard, is the thickness based off visual/design appeal, or is there a strength component to consider?
 
Hi Ken. It's actually an original/ authentic 1873 Winchester. It was purchased new in 1876 by my grandpa's great grandfather and has been kept in my family since.

Thanks for the comment.
Your family has done an EXCELLENT job of keeping it in great condition!

It sure looks good for it's age. Congrats on the family keeping it and taking care of the '73. The 1873 vs 1876 are hard to tell apart, but when I looked at the carrier block it looked short for a '76, but the side plates made me thing they were longer so thought '76.

A good pairing together the '73 and Bowie.
