Wow! Beautiful Model 12! You know a guy never knows where his guns have been. I certainly can't tell you who J. West is/was, but I have seen a Model 12 with that pattern on it here in Minnesota maybe 10 or 12 years ago. Same gun? Who knows.
As for J. West, you might try posting the inquiry to one of the following places on the internet.
FEGA.com (Firearms Engravers Guild of America)
Engraverscafe.com (There is also a forum on this site)
Engravingforum.com (The name says it all)
