Wayne’s grade 6 also has a similar layout, maybe similar to the roundells encountered on Parker’s occasionally, that is a very nice layout if you will.
I have a grade 4 with elk/deer on the side panels and then a setter on the floor plate, and then a few grade 3’s with multiple species of birds on the sides, but no dogs.

Crass gun are gunshows in themselves. I don't know the engravers on the higher grades, but they seem to have fertile imaginations. I have not seen the bird/dog placement before that I can recall.
