Rick is absolutely fabulous to work with. He made box calls for both my wife and I. The craftsmanship and tone are second to none. The inlay on both is stunning. Thank you so much for your attention to detail and constant communication.
Outstanding work, well worth the wait. Rick kept me updated through the whole build, and his work really speaks for itself. This is an absolutely beautiful rifle, I cant wait to get it into the woods. Thanks Rick!
Rick has built two rifles for me and both were attractive, well-built and extremely functional. In fact, he built Gobbler Knob #1 for me and I immediately knocked down a nice doe with it. My second GK rifle I call Jenny because the first game that I took with the .54 flint rifle was a young hen turkey. Very fair prices and Ricks willing to work with a customer for custom features, as well as offering advice about loads that might work well. Im very happy with my Gobbler Knob rifles and would highly recommend Rick and Gobbler Knob.
I have had the pleasure of handling not just one but two Gobbler Knob Rifles. The quality and workmanship is second to none. Would hands down recommend to anyone. Thanks Rick youre the best
Working with Rick was a dream, 5 stars for professionalism. Thank you for your service Rick! Looking forward to working with you again in the near future!
I have spent time watching Rick build these masterpieces and I have seen many of the rifles he’s made. You wouldn’t believe the attention to detail he puts into each and every rifle and he always puts his best efforts into his work. No doubt about it, Gobblerknob Rifles are the best.
In addition to building beautiful firearms Rick had authored two books. The Thin Green Line details his experiences as a Pennsylvania game warden and is an exciting read to say the least. His latest, Coping with Grief is about how he has been coping with the tragic loss of two of his children. I bought them both and after reading them I can only say that now Im eagerly awaiting a third!
I asked Rick to replicate a George Schreyr design Pennsylvania Longrifle with some modifications in the inlays such as German Nickel instead of brass. I wanted a fully functional long rifle that would be mostly for display. Rick did exactly as I wished and produced a beautiful rifle with excellent craftsmanship that I proudly display on my mantle. In addition, when I picked the rifle up, Rick educated me on its function and coached me on loading and firing it. When I have questions, Rick has been quick to return an email or text with the answers. Rick this is an excellent, well crafted rifle that I will treasure forever!
What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship! Everything from the precise detail to the vibrant colors you would want to find in a longrifle, and much more! I would highly recommend to others!
My rifle that Rick built is truly a beautiful piece of American History. It’s as beautiful to look at as is to shoot.
Most incredible detail work I have ever seen!
