“The rifle Brian LaMaster crafted for me is nothing short of a work of art. The fine details, quality materials, how he uniquely customized it to me and my family, and the precision and beauty of each element are beyond anything I could have hoped. Brian’s polite, easygoing demeanor made him a pleasure to work with, and after our initial consultation, he checked in as it progressed. Whenever he sought my input on specific details, I’d answer, ‘I’d never tell Michelangelo what paint or brush to use on the Sistine Chapel ceiling.’ I’ve been blessed to hold, own, and shoot a fair number of firearms over the years, and this is a rare and special gun. It became an instant family heirloom my sons are all vying for, and they’re already planning a shoot-off for who eventually gets it.” —G.C.
