Like the mechanism insert shown in photo number 5. Great looking guns finished to the highest level, works of art!

Impeccable craftsmanship as usual. I also like the bags they seem sturdy.

I recall a few WIP pictures of the OP showing how he routed an oversized mech pocket and shaft guide, filled up everything with graphite/epoxy mixture and then re-route to final dimensiones. This procedure gave him no exposed wood in those areas.

So, it is not an insert per se.... But we all get the idea.

Exceptional craftmanship! I wouldn't mind owning one of those guns. However I am pretty sure I wouldn't like the price tag on it....
