Speaking of floor plates

While perusing a 2004 Bonham’s auction catalog I came across this engraved floor plate. Now that’s something we don’t see every day! AAHE Ser. No. 88660 with Whitworth barrels.

Dean that's a game scene.

Don't know where the engraver took his anatomy or figure drawing class, but that is an unique gun for sure.

Most engravers never took an anatomy course in their lives... and some of their dogs are good examples, . |

Nothing wrong with the engraver! :rotf: |

I agree Garry and the engraving of these old guns is probably the one thing I like most about them... but everything else runs a very close second.

Very interesting and creative engraving on that trigger plate! Didn't see any flying turnips or head up or down stoat though. :whistle:
