Got a few more primers scrimmed. Subject matter varies. Some were images originally engraved on metal on the old rifles.

As far as I know yes they are for sale but I am just the scratch man on these. They belong to William "Bill" Smith of Elizabethtown, KY. He's a bag and hornmaker. He's a good friend of mine and I hang out in his shop and work with him when I get a chance. I'm dropping the 4 of these off at his shop tomorrow. He can be contacted at 270-307-5696. I think his email is
[email protected]


Thanks for the comment -Aaron

Those are very nice. What kind of horn are they? The size and shape doesn't look like typical bovine horns.

Thanks for all the comments

...and yes these were all cow horns.

If the shape seems a little off it may be because these horns are flat horns and were "flattened" in a press to get their shape. It's just a different style of horn.
