I like it well done, or not at all. No rolled, imprinted nonsense. Have mixed feelings about the acid etched work on Beretta O/U's. Relief panels, bolder scroll borders, and chiseled fences are fine with me--and animals if well executed (esp. deep relief). Gold barrel bands and matching lines on front sights seem appropriate. I don't even mind gold lines on the scope rings to match. I am glad some folks can afford to keep the craft extant. The arts have always needed patrons...Steve
P.S. does anyone know how the Sabatti double rifles are "engraved?"
