Rich: Is my pic of your gun, and may I attribute the image to you?
Terry: Would very much like to see an ultra close up of your gun's damascus pattern I believe the greatest variety in damascus patterns among US makers are found on Remington and Lefever guns.
I took this pic of Morris Baker's C grade in the back of his truck at the Southern last year



and believe the pattern is Toncin



also found on Linder Daly guns (this is Ross Berck's)

Drew, Yes. No problem. I'm sure that's my AA and that I shot the picture for an article in the newsletter after I bought it. About 90% of the time, when I'm photographing an old gun, I use that blue background.

Here's an ultra close up of the damascus pattern on Terry's Optimus. It's a VERY nice 4 Iron 'Rosen'; the first 4 Iron 'Rosen' that I have seen.



A 3 Iron 'Rosen'



and for jOe Rosa damascena

G grade - This gun has the same serial number as the Optimus
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=147474247

The Optimus sold for $16,172. It appears it sold to the same bidder who purchased the G grade.

Soon to be advertized as a "Rare Matching Serial Number Optimus Pair"???...Geo

You caught me. I faked the G grade, the Optimus is real. Well it is not the first pair of guns with the same serial number. Both could be honest guns with the right serial numbers. We just get paranoid when we see strange things. But remember paranoid people have enemies, they just can not figure which ones are real and which one are fakes.
