I like the third one the best. Is there a gun that goes with it?

Reminders of why these guns are so special. I'm feeling really inadequate right now.

That's a very nice tip for a V grade. It would be interesting to see if the gun was completed on a Friday, perhaps the engraver had some extra time before the end of the day but not enough to start another project so he lavished up the tip. Either way vey nice.

That's what the forend tip on 99.99% of VH guns should look like. Thanks Forrest.

Thanks Dean, not being sarcastic, just poking a little fun into these learned pages. I love that shotgun all the same, with or w/o engraving. Inletting is certainly second to none!
