Different butt stock and grip cap

[Elk Hunter]

Here's the best pictures we could get of the engraving. Thought I would mention the forend is worn to the point that the checkering is completely gone except for a shadow at the very tip end. As I stated in the beginning I'm sure the butt stock is a replacement as the checkering is quite fresh but does not appear, at least to me, to have been re-cut. Someone thought enough of it to have the stock replaced probably twice. I wonder how many ducks and geese were taken with it? As the saying goes, if it could only talk.
