Gournet as compared to another
 

I recently found photos of a Parker A1 repro that was for sale that was engraved in a very similar design to the one that I chose for my own gun. It is engraved by another well known name, that I will not mention here. The difference is overall quality is amazing. Especially in the detail of the scroll work.

See photos below.

Are the G's on the screw heads a type of signature?

Not that I know of. If they look like Gs to you. I just see a little curl.

Brian do you think you’ll bring your gun to Sanford in April ?

Surprised the screws aren't timed

Look closer at the picture that’s just the action without wood . I think it would be safe to say when wood etc is added they’ll be timed .

Gournet's scroll work shows depth because he intertwined the curls one over or behind the other. The "other" engraver just lazily laid his scrolls over the adjacent ones giving the appearance that they are just scratches on steel that show no layering or depth. Also the border of the Gournet trigger plate is much finer and elegant than the "other's".
A world of difference!

They are just not tight. Believe me, they are properly fitted.

If I am there, yes, it will be.

Brian -Thanks. I missed the fact that the gun was not fitted to the stock. Great stuff
