I have had guns' engraving freshened up by Doug Turnbull, Theirry Duguet and will probably have other guns freshened up by others. There is no problem with having such work done. I disagree with Craig and think that sticking with a project can be very satisfying compared to bailing out. There are many engravers who can do "some work" without running you into the poorhouse. Theirry is an exceptional choice for restoration work.

Bill - Theirry Duguet - is that the name of the very talented engraver at DTR?

This was a very nice NH I purchased from one of our members. Sometime in the past the previous owner (before our member to be clear) had taken a sharp object and "engraved" his S.S. number into the floor plate, ruining it.

I took it to Thierry Duguet and he removed all of the original engraving and put it back perfectly. Sorry for the quality of the cell phone picture. The frame was already in the white, and so it remains with the beautiful floor plate. I've also had him re-do the dogs on a DH where they had been polished down.
