BINGO !!

Bob Kimble was kind enough to send me a high quality loupe and with the extra power afforded by it it became evident that the impressions in the inside of my trigger guard were made by the jaws of a vise. Probably to hold it stationary as it was being engraved in Meriden.

Thanks Bob!

I've seen plenty of guns and other things over the years that were marred by vises...
