All firearms in the Lars Wood collection were accurized and hand-tuned by Lars Wood, retired FFL/SOT gunsmith, semi-finalist in the 1987 U.S. Olympic pistol trials, and subject of the Flathead Beacon feature “Aiming for a World Record” (2017). Each firearm reflects Wood’s emphasis on precision, reliability, and practical performance. His revolvers feature upgraded Power Custom trigger components with enhanced internals, paired with premium adjustable sights, to deliver both rapid-fire consistency and exceptional accuracy. His rifles were tuned for smooth cycling, crisp triggers, and optimized performance with heavy hunting and survival loads. The .44 Magnum revolver noted in Wood’s training documentation served only as a reference platform and is not part of this auction.
