Description:
Gunsmiths worthy of the name have always been in short supply everywhere, especially here in West Tennessee. One of the best ones ever was Mr. Rip Fanning, born Innes B. Fanning, 1898 – 1982, who was better known as a Professional Baseball Manager in the middle part of the 20th Century. Mr. Rip served as gunsmith for Anderson Sporting Goods in neighboring Lexington, Tennessee, from his retirement from baseball in the late 1950s until the early 1970s. His refinishing work was his strong suite, more durable and better looking than factory in many cases. Here is a plain old Revelation 350C Single Shot, the Western Auto marketed variant of the 94D, that Mr. Rip made into a work of art some time in the 1960s for the Parker’s Crossroads cotton farmer who bought it new in the 1950s. Buttstock and forend are original walnut, and the 14 3/4 inch pull buttstock is crowned with a classic Red Head recoil pad. The .688 muzzle diameter full choke barrel and 5 pound 14 ounce weight makes that pad necessary. Its only surface detraction is a 1/2 inch hairline crack on the right side of the buttstock next to the receiver with no separation. Otherwise, surface finish is excellent throughout. Chamber and mechanism are smooth, tight, and excellent. Bore shows moderate pitting for about 12 inches forward of the chamber, but the front half of the bore is smooth and bright, and that is the crucial area anyway for throwing a tight pattern. Center of gravity is at the rear of the forend, where it’s supposed to be. They don’t make them like this any more; in fact, they never did to begin with until Mr. Rip got hold of this fine old piece.

Don't let your buddies use your account. Registered user must be the buyer, with his or her own money. Buying firearms and related items for other people can result in felony charges. Don't try, either, to circumvent any law; for example, a California civilian may not buy a high capacity magazine and have it shipped to his brother-in-law in Nevada. That is a felony.
GA Pay buyers are NOT charged until we confirm we have the item and are ready to ship it. The same thing is true for phone-in, fax-in, and mail-in payments. In this respect, and in several others, Guns America outshines all its competitors. This is the best firearms website there is, hands down.
