I believe Randy's GHE birds were engraved by Runge but the examples Dave shows are not familiar to me but they don't look like the work of Runge, to me anyhow.

Here is an example from a late SBT that was an unfinished gun at the start of the war.
I believe it was finished by DelGrego Runge after the war. B3250523-58EC-4E8D-8D61-2A66333CBC82.jpg

That certainly looks like Runge’s engraving.
