Outstanding rifle and scope combo. Knife as well. What does your Blaser chamber?
It's a Merkel RX Helix in .308 and the knife is a Mulah Magnum made in Spain.

Valued at $1.2 million. Was in the shop for an oil leak from all the track time it gets.

Of all of your photos these are the most appealing to me so far. The lighting is spot on for the nickel finish on the subject.
Well done.
Jim

First, thank you GCE61 and Jimbo54.
The gun is a .45 Uberti 1873 Cody model of the Cattleman series in nickel w/faux 1-piece ivory grip. That model is interesting to me as my maternal grandmother (1879-1969) was a Cody, cousin to Buffalo Bill.
The belt/holster was a one time only project of mine to get into leather crafting. One time only. 18 years ago.
If I sold that set for $800 I would make about $0.50/hour.
As for the photos (and all my photos) I use nothing but natural light, mostly indoors.
Every now and then I get a good one.

That looks like a vehicle plate from Montana.
