Seeing all these shields engraved pushed me to have it done on a modern Parker that will stay in the family as a waterfowling gun.
The Duck is an American Eider and below are beach dunes and native sea grass- just like the places I hunt in Pleasant Bay.
The Eider was copied from the 1957-8 Federal Duck Stamp below. Thanks to Dean Romig for the suggestion of a place to look for models.
The shield now has to get worn and muddied and bloodied.
