It's Robin's AAHE 16.

He would be the one to ask.

You should see the wood - it is outstanding chocolate & honey!

Any way to get a close up of a receiver side and bottom?

Sure but the sides and bottom don't depict the "Art Deco" style as well as the pics I've posted.

The first gun pictured, my friend Berle Cherney's Ken Hurst engraved Dan Rossiter stocked Fox, known as "The Chrysler Gun" because of the art deco styling, partially based on the Chrysler building, is shot on a weekly basis.

I fell in love with that engraving the first time I saw it about four years ago.
