    Looks cool!

    Are there any manufacturers looking to make other guns like this? [... 10 seconds googling] WOW! How much to get a damascus steel ar15?

    I mean, *I* can't afford one but I know a few people on here who seem like they could. Would love to have a cgn'r post some reviews of something like that.

    I got off topic.

The Oak series Damascus guns are over 50K..... these (depending) on the USD conversion will be under 10k. Call or email for current quote!

    Nice gun, and it may be canister Damascus but I highly doubt they got that repeatable defined pattern by adding metal into a canister and forging it. There was some articulate drilling done during the forging to create the raindrop effect. There are incredible master smiths out there and would crazy to see in the future a mosaic pattern with a distinctive image on a slide.

    All the guns made by Cabot Guns are extreme works of art and should be cherished by collectors. If you are interested in looking at other Damascus guns including frames check out JJFU guns. Forget about the politics. Just some unreal works of art for the collector or shooter. Not taking anything away from the Cabot guns though. It's just nice to appreciate the Damascus made 1911's .

    I was going to say the same. Where are the adjustable sights, It's beautiful though.
