The engraving on the AHE Larry refers to was very well executed and the seller had been told that the big game animals on the sides of the frame devalued the gun but I disagree with that philosophy especially where the person giving that opinion was someone who wished to buy the gun.....
It is my opinion that the big game animals or anything engraved which is a departure from that which is considered the "standard for the grade" elevates the value of the gun if it is tastefully and artistically done.

What a bunch of BS. If the guy didn't like the gun he should have kept his mouth shut and walked away. I don't get where some of these self serving "experts" come from.
