Craig~

No writing on rib. Here is a better photo of butt plate (I cleaned off the whitish residue) and one of each side of the stock. Better?

Questions:

What breed of dog/species of bird on butt plate? I have always taken them to be a Lab and a Snipe.

Wood: I do not know much about stock woods. How would you describe the figure on mine?

All the best,

SJS

I would describe it as beautiful. You have a very nice gun there Steve. That stock is figured walnut.

Thanks very much, Paul.
