Need to make missing part?

No, I'm having a Sterlingworth Ejector gun upgraded to an Early BE grade (second generation engraving). Trying to get a good digital picture of the engraved escutcheon.

Does what you're looking for Tom, even exist? I would think that any smallbore BE with a snap-on forend would have the early first-generation style engraving.

I think it does. I've seen snap on Forearms with Second Generation B engraving, but they weren't ejector models. Needle in a haystock but I think they do exist.

Here's a picture of a Snap on B grade small bore, but its an non ejector model:

Well I'll be a son-of-a-gun, that's a first for me. Thanks for showing.

The photo of the forearm I posted is off of a all nos matching 1915 AE grade 20ga. I beleave the engraving on the gun is considered the later style.

That A grade escutcheon appears to be almost identical to a Sterlingworth ejector escutcheon. Maybe that was the norm for the A grades. Appears I'll just have to have Gournet figure out what works best and leave it up to him. This isn't his first rodeo for sure.

He is good at that.
