Corey, I have a lithograph that is contemporary to when your gun was made. It may well have been the reference for the engraving.

That is remarkable, Don. Thank you very much for sharing.

It certainly looks like the inspiration! Any idea of the year or artist? I added another pic of the engraving and reversed the image from how it appears on the gun. I just sent you a PM as well.

The wealth of resource and knowledge in this group always amazes me. Half the fun is figuring out the story and you all do such a good job of helping to fill in known, or plausible, gaps. Thanks!
