interesting art project. A production of ten is about right, I suspect there are few who would want to buy it. It should come with a matching ammo holder and belt, and maybe even a matching hat band.

The parallels to mutiny on the bounty with the original Captain Bligh are unavoidable: a plan that few want and is likely to stir division.

Someone should find out the price! I’m going to guess $25,000.
 
I love my R8’s, unconventional styling and all, but there is a limit!!!!
 
Not my cup of tea at all, but you have to admit there is a ton of work in that. Elephant or buffalo hide would have been easier and less in your face.

that will go great with my Gucci alligator skin man-bag
 
That should come with a limited edition, matching Leica Rangefinder camera.
 
Not my type of gun, but I can appreciate the craftsmanship that went into that stock.
 
Is that thing for real??
 
While it appears to be some sort of aftermarket "partnership" of sorts(?), I bet they sell every one they make. They know their primary clientele . Lol
 
Interesting, and it's not getting much interest for consideration.
It's not for me and I would not take it in the field, i don't think.
For those with Thea means to hold it as a collectible it would be interesting, if there is ever a second run then first production should gain value.
 
I fit doesn't come with a matching set of High Heels, Purse, Gunbelt, Shellholder, and a pair of Boots
I'm not buying one!!!! Oh and a Gator Hunt.
 
I'm a professed fan of the R8 and I don't get it.

It's a Gator skinned rifle that you wouldn't use to hunt Gators.
Or anything else for that matter.
And only the 17mm barrel is available so there is in fact NO 458LOTT option.

I guess there is a market for such things.
Gives the term "Safe Queen" a whole new meaning.

I read an older thread that mentioned you having some 9.3x64 brass. Do you still have some? I am looking for 100 pcs, maybe 200.
A wonderful trip to Hungary with a very special friend !
