Too bad there's nothing you can do about the quality of the engraving....

I like the gun, sorta. But the last comments got me even more confused. Steve says the gun was never assembled, IM says it came completely assembled...Doesnt matter really, but now I am curious.....

IM is correct.....but boy certain things just did not fit up like one would expect, like a the fore end iron which would not even begin to go on the gun.....one of those Galazan mysteries I suppose.

Sounds like possibly the gun had some warpage during the case hardening process & your the lucky guy that got to do the hard fitting. FYI, These guns came fully assembled in the white, wood finished & checkered. They were a fully fuctioning gun waiting for an order to come in for a custom engraved A-1 special repro. How Galazans got them to sell I have no-clue, but boy I wish I would have bought one!!!

Brian you said a mouthfull there,and I agree totally...sometime's people love to complain for the sake of complaining!!! C'mon fella's do you actually think someone of SKB's experience was not aware of indexed screw's ?...my geuss is that he just wanted to post a few pic's of an interesting project,I for one thank him for the chance to look.

That's a pretty gun I'd be proud to own. And even Caty's frown lines are gorgeous.

Don't get me wrong it's a nice looking gun...but if you paid allot of money for the engraving (not the Belino) you should ask for some of it back.
