***** BRAND NEW NEVER FIRED GUN OF THE MONTH CLUB OCTOBER 2024 RELEASE RARE ******Introducing the "Blackleaf" - November 2024's Gun of the Month Club Deluxe Edition. Born from the artistic vision of FEGA Master Engraver Lee Griffiths, Blackleaf is a breathtaking fusion of nature's autumn splendor and unmatched craftsmanship.October's changing leaves inspired its unique design. The Blackleaf's scrollwork is a homage to this season, featuring large, curling leaves and flowing stems. The intricate loops, coils, and seed motifs symbolize the eternal cycle of life and new beginnings. It's a masterclass in ornamental scroll style, where every transition point unveils complex leaves, heralding the start of new scrolls and patterns.Lee Griffiths, a self-taught legend in hand-engraving, brings his extraordinary skill and dedication to perfection to Blackleaf. His exceptional art and scroll designs are beautifully complemented by Cabot's unparalleled engineering and all-stainless construction. Lee's work is so divine, I've often described Lee as the hand of God.In a nod to American heritage, we've selected exquisitely figured American walnut for the grips. Their shape pays tribute to the avant-garde, futuristic designs of Jean St. Henri, a craftsman based out of Malibu, California. His work in the 1970s was completely unique, setting a precedent in pistol grip design with its innovative approach. Blackleaf doesn't just embody artistic excellence; it's a celebration of historical craftsmanship and forward-thinking design.Chambered in .45 ACP, the Blackleaf is not just a firearm; it's a piece of history, an artistic statement, and a testament to the enduring spirit of American innovation and craftsmanship. It's our hope that, just as we were inspired by the past, Blackleaf will inspire future generations of craftsmen.
