I agree with Craig, and have felt that way for some time. The grade 5 guns have the gold treatment of the grip, and the beaded fence. I only have two at this time, and both are damascus barreled. The 1 frame 16ga is an 1892 gun, which had slightly less flair to the checkering, but the Gough engraving is very much finer than later guns. The 0 frame 20 has wonderful dog treatment, with two on both sides in addition to two on the trigger plate, chasing two birds.
