Hopefully Mr. Day will forgive me for beating him to the punch on this upgraded Trojan that he posted a while back.

It is a beaut of a gun.

No they are not. The original engraving was done by Sam Welch and the second set was done by a retired H & H engraver then living in CA. Very different styles but both beautiful. The gun was originally given to me by Austin Hogan and had been through a house fire. The barrels had separated and curled in different directions. Brad Bachelder "put it back together" and stocked it.
