I had my jeweler do one of mine several years ago. Came out just how I wanted it.

I bought two guns at auction, on their own merits, with engraved ovals. Years later, after intense research, I found that the initials were of John Phillip Sousa. I'm glad I didn't erase the initials. I wrote articles on both guns for Double Gun Journal and the Remington Journal that display both guns. There are many areas of research that can uncover the identities of previous owners of your guns.
