Default Firearms Engraving

Jeff & Bruce and other members thanks for sharing pictures of engraved Parker's & other fine sporting arms.My introduction to engraving started in 1973 with a book The Art of Engraving by James B. Meek the first book ever written on the subject of firearms engraving it open it up for every one were in the U.S. to learn the art or you would have to find an engraver who would be willing to help you or try to get into a gun company's custom shop or go to Europe or England.But with a background in art and the determination to learn I practiced with hammer, chisel & hand push engraving tools for two year's on practice plates before engraving any guns.I enjoy engraving sporting arms with scrolls and especially if asked to engrave game scenes animals & birds.It been a wonderful experience and all the friends I've made.
