I love the Darne and one day wish to own as many as I now own in other sxs. Someone once said that the French can over engineer and over design almost everything. That is what I see here. Not be be negative but simply not to my liking on what fine engraving should entail on a gun of this quality. I do hope you have many enjoyable years in the field with it and one day I might see the intrinsic beauty as you do.

Cheers,
