Engraver's Signature: Help Please

[Reggie B]

Do the barrel flats have any markings that would indicate DelGrego? Like initials inside a circle? I can't see any but the barrel flats pic isn't the best. But I think you are correct on Runge. And does the stock oval have any initials?

"Bob" signed his upgrades in at least two different locations; the more common one was on the bull nose end of the trigger plate, and in either the left or right side of a border of the trigger plate. The former, being curved, had less information, but the straight often included a date.
The DelGrego stamp that Reggie refers to, was something they used randomly. It doesn't appear on many of the upgrades done by the two, together.
I wasn't aware of DelGrego stamping a date of their upgrades, until Brian found it while working on mine, in the top tang groove.
Reggie will probably agree, the timing of your post is ironic.

Reggie:

That question is outside of my pay grade. Here are some better photographs of the barrel flats.

Victor, a video is not the best method of studying engraving. I have seen many Runge upgrades and I assume this is one of them.
