Anyone heard of Ed Budd? I scored an old but beautiful custom Mauser. It is a 98 receiver rebarreled to .308 with a custom trigger and tang safety, scope on top (an old Weaver but works great!), and a hand made fancy walnut stock with hand done checkering. The checkering is very fine and has the fleurdelis detail. Amazing gun. Looking at Wenig's catalog I price the stock at about $1500 to have done today, at least! I bet this is a $5000+ gun to have made today. Anyways, anyone know of Ed Budd and his custom guns? His name was stamped on the barrel. Thanks!
