Hammer Guns Closeups:

[Bruce P Bruner]

I enjoy taking closeup photos to see what I can’t ordinarily see with my old eyes. Expand the photos a bit to view the detail.
They sure don’t make ‘em like this anymore.

I like that band of engraving around the bolsters of the top lever gun.

Beautiful. Incredible workmanship! Must have been something, back in the day, to walk through the upland covers with a piece of furniture in your hands. (;

I like that band of engraving around the bolsters of the top lever gun.

I like it too Edgar. That was typical of Grade-2 engraving of that period. Those G’s are ‘highly engraved’ compared to earlier and later Grade-2’s.
