One of the regular coffee drinkers at Mitchell’s Drug store is Bill Hargis. Not too long ago, he had some of his custom made writing pens with him, made from rifle casings. I was immediately impressed. He went out to his truck and brought back four or five different styles – most of which are shown here in my photos. Some of his barrels are made from deer antler, some from marble. Some have a rifle or deer head for the clip. They are all solid, attractive pens and write well. He makes and sells them as a hobby. If you are looking for a product for a gift that is made not only in Tennessee, but in Crossville, you can contact Bill at 484-7703 if you are interested in buying them. They sell for $20 each.
