Even Tom Carter couldn't bring this out.
You have to be Gary C or David or Bruce to know there is a dog there. |

George, this is pretty rough, but not beyond hope and I see lots of possibilities. I've seen guns worse than this brought back so that a person could never tell how bad it was before. If a person needs names or discussion, contact me.
I can make out enough engraving to make me think that something close to this was originally there: |

It's like a magic eye trick. It took me knowing what to look for, by seeming Bruce's example to see it. Now it sticks out plain as day.

This is not a post, It is a tribute to the men who have worked on this project.
Look at the top picture, taken on Edgar's kitchen table months ago. Look at the pictures below, taken today. FYI- some pitting had to stay. But surprisingly, it's really only visible under photography. |
