Beautiful gun Jay! I would far prefer it to any factory job I've seen but then I'm only an engraver and not a sophisticated collector who worships at the alter of factory engraving.

Ray Cover is one of today's best and just keeps getting better.

Regards,
Roger

Your book was invaluable when I set out on this project Roger, and allowed me to go ahead with confidence. Thank you!

Charlie, what is the material used in your inlays, if they are, in fact, inlays.

Not inlays Bill, Ray Cover cut both the scroll and bulino images in the polished frame, Art Isaacson reblued (Du-Lite as originally), then Ray applied a "French gray" treatment to remove bluing from the images. He told me the images are essentially bare metal, should be kept lightly oiled or waxed.
