Wanted to make a pen from 45 brass but just couldn't find something I liked so started messing with 308 and came up with this. It uses American Classic flat top pieces (very few in their original form).

The lower barrel is walnut burl. I split the case and turned tenons to attach the brass. The upper barrel is bloodwood, American holly, and blue box elder burl. The top is finished with CA the walnut on the bottom is sealed with sanding sealer the brass was polished with neverdul. Its a shell it should be polished often to keep its military roots intact. Let me know what you think good and bad. Thanks for looking
