High grade floorplate subjects

That's pretty cool. Special request by a hunter that loved to hunt with Greyhounds I bet.
We had a track here since 1944 and only just closed last year. Those dogs are really fast.

Brian, that’s a unique engraving. I’m actually a bit surprised that more B grade guns don’t have more unique designs.

I've been fortunate to have had a couple B grades, and both had a pair of Elk, or some such critter, on the floor plates. Both were also 6 dog guns. The trigger bow treatments are equally interesting. The scroll work on my 16ga (1 frame) BH has very fine engraving, and the 'Parker Bros" banner is so tiny, you almost have to hunt for it.
Perhaps it's only my imagination, but it seems that because of the extent of engraving, the trigger plates may have received a lesser degree of hardening, and are occasionally scratched up a bit more than lower grades.
