Leave the animals and caricatures off. They never lend themselves to being timeless, in my opinion anyway.

I agree

#2 or #7 from the top are nice. Although I am in the camp that believes a nice upland gun in a sub gauge could use a quail, grouse, pheasant or woodcock. Just my opinion.

Thanks.

Any with ducks really

[Aniest]

Is there two types here? An over/under and side-by-side? It would depend on what you are getting...

To choose between what is existing here I like this one the most:


Engraving is nice but it can't be over powering either. Just my opinion though...

If I was deciding on one from scratch I would pick the one above but extend the metal and engraving down the stock like so:



But leave the space with the duck open and free so anyone who would want to get it custom engraved in the future could. I already have a combo O/U... but might buy another if it was like that.

Just my thoughts...

To be attractive engraving must be well done or it just looks like a cheap scratched up gun. Forget the mythical lions and weird birds. If you include birds ( appropriate on a shotgun) they should be realistic in form and setting. I prefer the second one and the last one although a few of the others are also nice. I note that some of these samples ( show samples?) appear to have outstanding wood. Will we have the opportunity for these kind of wood upgrades? Also, a few of the guns shown are side by side, any chance of a high grade side by side? I would be happy to place an order for a semi custom upgrade Bobwhite in 28 gauge.

Last two

I also agree.

I like the bottom one.

Side plates please. 12 and 20 gauge combo. 30" barrels.
