Cool video. :) He reminds me of that old-time craftsmanship that we don't see much of anymore...

Looks like he was using Klien Linesmans around 1:15... at least they had Klien's replacement grips

We spoke with Adrian at the Shot Show. He seems like a really great guy. In describing the process of making the Charge scales, I came to realize that the real difficulty isn't in working the silver, its in making the mold cavity in which to cast the silver.

You can see Adrian making the mold around the 56 second mark. :)
