This beautiful rifle was handmade by Jesse Evans, a long-time contributor to the NWTF!
Jesse has custom built and donated rifles for years to support conservation and our hunting heritage.
This is a one-of-one, flintlock Kentucky long rifle in .50 caliber.
The stock is made from gorgeous, meticulously cut, rare Birdseye maple.
It is adorned with all brass hardware. Included is a sliding wooden patch box.
This year’s rifle also has hand-engraved scroll work in the Birdseye Maple stock, something Jesse has never done.

In addition to this masterclass-crafted flintlock, the winner will receive a matching one-of-one custom-built skinning knife with matching Birdseye Maple wooden handle.
The blade was made from the metal of a 100-year-old sawmill blade.
