Boy that looks fine! Mind if I copy it? My 25 year old scabbard is wearing thin, and I would be proud to carry one like yours!

Looks great.  I would suggest that you use that for going to and from events but not long
term storage.  I have seen guns end up with bad rust even though things seemed dry.  Leather
can suck moisture out of thin air.  Best to keep in the open - such as in a dry safe rack with a
desiccate inside.  ML are prone to rust far worst than most modern guns.  I carry in buckskin or
wool scabbards all the time - but clean, dry and back on the rack right after I get home  ;)

That is a fine looking scabbard to keep your rifle in while on the move.

I like your scabbard a lot and may take a few hints from it and try one myself.
