Very nice rifle! Thank you for uploading the photos. .. Watson577



Hello Watson577

Thanks for the reply.

Since you mentioned the photos, I actually thought the Rhino might me some kind of photo-etch process, but its not. Its an actual engraving. I'm sure the engraver also works for the French Mint
to engrave the Government printing plates used for printing paper money. What remarkable detail!

And, as I said in my first post, I spend a lot of time looking at my rifle with a magifying glass to see what new things I might discover.

Well, here's one I just found. The close-up of the Rhino looks very good, but when you look through a magnifying glass you can see where the engraver signed his artwork. Straight right of the Rhino's horn,
at the edge of the engraving, he engraved his name.
