Quality G Top Action

Thanks for posting these pictures! I have several G top lever guns and really like the engraving and finish. None of mine have the woodcock. I'm envious. This looks like an exceptional gun. Glad to see it's serving you well.

Thanks. It's springtime at the Lake of the Ozarks and about time for the woodcock and loons to move north. But here is a detail of the woodcock engraved on the 1881 G.

Thanks so much for the close-up. I really like the stylization of the Parker engravers. I'd like to find a nice G hammer 16 with that woodcock(!)

I'm curious about the case coloring on your gun. It looks beautiful -- a bit muted and not too intense. Did Edgar do something to mute it a bit, or is that the result of your using it? I really like what I see in those pictures.

Thanks again for sharing. I hope that gun takes game for you for a long time to come.

I forgot to mention. We have had woodcock doing their "sky dance" across from our house in North Missouri (not far from the Iowa line) for over a week. They were actually a bit late this year. Odd because we have had a warm late winter/early spring so far. Makes me anxious for October.
