Default R.P.RUNGE Upgrade Signature

I thought I would segment out the Runge signature topic from the Thread of Brett Hoop on the CHE 16 GA.
The attached picture clearly shows the full engraving of signature on my gun.
Maybe someone with better Photoshop capabilities than me could digitally magnify the engraved band and post the picture here for future reference on this topic.
Also, Edgar was correct in that the engraving reads "BY RPRUNGE"

There are two Runge upgraded 410s on Steve Barnett's site, an AHE and a BHE. The Runge mark can be seen on the border of the forward end of the floor plate on the AHE. I could not see said mark on the BHE. I don't know how to transfer picture.

I believe I have seen the AHE when Bill Hadfield had it for sale several years ago. A beautiful gun!!
