WC, thanks for finding and posting those photos. Don't believe I have seen that one before. Absolutely gorgeous. And no doubt it will be even better when it returns from Steve's shop. That's an engraving style I haven't seen much before.
One of the things I really like about Ideals are the different high grade engraving patterns. Like they let the engraver loose rather than confined his art to "Company Approved" patterns. Very glad I snagged my 6R EE 12 gauge. Now just keeping an eye out for a companion 16 gauge.
I miss the Darne/USA forums that M. Gournet used to maintain. A lot of good information got lost when those forums were shut down. Not very active but a treasure trove of info on Darne and Manufrance guns.
