As I recall my gun is a 1902 gun too. Too me all of these older Uncle Dan, guns feel similar. I have held a Nitro Special a few times, but don't know much about them, nor am I drawn to them. It's also my opinion of the Flues gun which is a joy to many folks and the high grade ones are nice, but they leave me cold, but; that's just me.
The esthetics of a shotgun is ironic in a way. It is a gun and deadly, after all, but also beautiful, so was the Spitfire. Some, I think are more beautiful than functional, others are functional and plain, but still graceful. I am not a huge fan of highly engraved and inlayed shotguns, but it is a matter of personal choice. I have a gun-nut friend who covers his guns with fine engraving, even pocket pistols.
I am not trying to step on toes. My opinion is just MHO and nothing else. If you love highly engraved guns, have at them! I like looking at them too.
