I appreciate that many of these photographs have been posted before over the past few years, and that they will be familiar to many of you. Our readership has grown and I am never sure who goes back and visits old posts so I thought that whilst I was sending a client a selection of engraving options for some small bore guns we are building him, that I would post the selection of engraving options that I sent ahead.
It is quite nice to see them all in one group also!

All works of Art sir, I dare not pick the one I think is best. As there are no best in this battery of guns, each has it’s own perfect merits to someone. Thank you for showing these shotguns together, while I may have seen most it is still nice to see them all together giving one a chance to drool without leaving this blog. Great work…each and everyone.Good Day Simon,
In Christ
