Herman Rupp (1756-1831)
Herman Rupp lived and worked throughout his life 15-20 miles southwest of Allentown, Pennsylvania. This contemporary example depicts one of the earliest documented fully evolved Lehigh Valley rifles, dated 1793. It demonstrates most of the architectural and decorative details that distinguish rifles built during this period in the Lehigh Valley area.

I am loving the rifle!
Not only beautiful to look at, but a joy to shoot!
Tim,
Thank you so much for your presentation the other day. You are a natural teacher. The kids just loved it. You captivated them.
You’ve built a magical gun ! It is truly my favorite. It fits me like an extension of myself. Great ! Great ! Job. I can’t praise you enough!
Just wanted to say thanks. You build a great longbow. Killed my first deer with it Wednesday night. She was an old long nosed doe that I have been playing cat and mouse with since the Sept 29th season opener.
Tim, shot my Feree yesterday. The rifle prints right where I need it to be. I’m a happy man 😊 ready to take it to the woods.
