I sometimes wish I would have gone to Gunsmithing School. However even the best ones here in the US are nothing compared to working thru an Apprenticeship for an outfit like Purdey, WR, H&H etc.

I have held a few Bespoke Shotguns, and they are alive in your hands, and that is because of the Personal Theta that was put into the gun by the makers.

I talk about "Tactile Gratification" when handling one of my Hand Presses, and how you get satisfaction from simply fondling it. However these guns "Force it" into you at a level which is hard to Ignore, as long as you have the Awareness to feel it in the first place. Most don't, and I really take exception to those who can afford something like this ,,, But don't deserve it! . They are never aware of 90% of the reason for the Gun Existing in the first place !!!.
