mc, Ted's post above shows the obvious... Even an engraver who never left the confines of a large city or saw a book with pictures of birds would have seen pigeons... unless Ray Charles was also an engraver. Ponds in city parks and rivers frequently have ducks and geese on the water. So the only valid excuse for engraving flying turnips or bottles with wings would either be a lack of talent, or pushing out crude renditions of birds as fast as possible to meet some quota.

Either way, they probably do better than I could, but I have never been tempted to buy a graver. I need a couple engraved screws for a 16 ga. E grade Lefever I recently bought, so maybe it's time to give it a try.

A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
