I (of course) especially like the setter on the second gun. But nice selection.

Thanks

Thanks for the pics Bruce.

In looking at the deep relief pheasant it almost looks as if the engraver took a floor plate with a more standard engraving scene and decided to cut the left side in a deeper style. This is the first time I’ve seen anything quite like that.

Thanks for sharing these Bruce. It is nice to be able to see a side-by-side comparison of all the variations of engraving on C grades.

I'm with you Russ; I would love to see everyone’s C grade floor plate pics posted here. Here is a 32" strait grip gun that I'm sure some have seen but others may have not.
