Default Yes Brian and Mills, there is a dog.

The barely dog is now visible in all its glory. Again, the pitting is not visible under normal conditions.
To remove all the little pocks would have destroyed the original engraving.

Are you planning to case color harden the frame? A good case coloring will hide, if not actually fill in, much of that mico-pitting.

She's gonna be a real beauty when she's done. The cleanup on that receiver is amazing.

This is what the barrels looked like in Edgar's kitchen on March 2, 2013 and this is what they look like now.

So George, when are we going to see the finished Product? Stock by Chris Dawe, barrels by Brad and the receiver by Tom Carter and the engraver all together in your hands.

I'm very, very impressed George. That is truly a makeover worth the price.
