There was a D Grade 8 gauge toplever posted on another shotgun forum some years ago and the engraver had made full use of every available surface. I found a new bird or feature every time I looked at it. Sure wish I could own that gun, but it was one where the owner posted the pictures and then dropped out of sight.

Sounds more like the Grade 6 hammer guns I've examined over the years - full coverage must have been a very special order for a D.
