Really nice write up by Roy Huntington on the Springer that Ted built and presented to him at last years SHOT Show. The pictures are amazing, but it was even better in person.

They even put a nice centerfold shot in there, and I can honestly say, it is the only Centerfold featuring anything to do with Ted that I would consider putting up on the Shop Wall!

It is a very well written piece. It brings how I feel about smiths like Ted and the work they do. They bring seemingly unatainable quality to the seemingly mundane. The pistol set is true work of functional art. I am glad to be around to see fruits of his labor, and I hope to own onee of them eventually. Thankyou to Ted Yost for his superlative work. Thank you.

The article and the pics are indeed fantastic... oh yeah and the gun too! Well, I've always been proud to be associated with Ted and the other LTW lads.... all of us here know what fine work Ted and Heirloom turn out, it's great to see it shared on a broader scale.

I'm very proud for my bro Ted to get some well-deserved recognition!

Without a doubt, Theo is one of the most diversely talented gunsmiths out there.

Why , Thank you youse guys!

It really is a treat to get to do what I do every day. To get to do something special for a friend like Roy makes it all even more worthwhile. There's a saying that we're only as good as our customers let us be. I try and never lose sight of how mundane the days could be if my customers didn't let me stretch my brain out from time to time.

I appreciate the kind words, but more so the friendship behind them.
