Doug - beautiful work! Makes me think about refinishing my A10 barrels . . . .

I am curious about the engraving - did the RBL come in the white or was that done over the factory laser engraving?

I'm interested in possibly having a rib hand cut matted. Who did the matting on that rib?

The pictured RBL is my gun. It was originally a "Reserve" model, whatever that means. We had to anneal the action so that it could be re-engraved. The original laser engraving was carefully sanded off after annealing. The rib engraving type is called Florentine. The Bolino image of my Lab captured her perfectly.

The engraver is Mr. Bill Bennett. He can be reached at bbacktob@comcast.net.

He's a dear friend, master engraver and as fine a fellow to work with you can imagine. He lives in Placitas, New Mexico.

PM me if you want more information.
