In case anyone else is wondering (had one private query) about my mention of Cecil Brooks in reply #182, he is a legendary Ohio gunmaker who crafts presentation rifles for the NRA including those proudly kept by VP Dick Cheney, Rush Limbaugh, and Charleton Heston. There was a feature story about him in the Feb. 2005 issue of the American Rifleman, which can be viewed here:
