That Chain pattern looks very much like the same pattern as on my FE Lefever. On the LAC guns, the Chain Damascus was most often seen on the E grade I believe.

Outstanding is an understatement. As good as it looks in the pictures, it is far better in person.

Another example of Chris Dawes's superb craftsmanship.

I think your case colors are excellent. Lots of blues. Wish I could see it in 50 years when they soften into those superb subtle water colors which are so often seen on Remington's.

Thanks Jon. I wish that too. Perhaps when my son is around my age, 50 years from now, he will be able to enjoy those softened colours. I hope he will.

Late to the game but, great job by Chris, Very nice looking resto, James. I know you will enjoy the Remington, and I hope you shoot it well. It really looks good.

Doug and Stan, thank you for the positive comments. Most appreciated. Thanks to everyone who has taken a moment and posted something. While I love it, I must say I'm a bit surprised. It got a bigger reaction than I was expecting. Taking it out tomorrow for round 2...some sporting clays.

I also love seeing Chris get the recognition he deserves. I'm lucky to have a smith in Chris who not only does great work but is on the same page as me when we are talking about what needs doing, what to do and what looks good.
