Yes thats true. And I understand that several of the hig end weatherbys are flashy almost like this. but I doubdt they are up to it with quality. But I don't think this was so bad though. I think it is a nice rifle. a bit special with ivory tip on the stock and the cutting style of the pistolgrip and grip. the gold and silver are not that flashy. it is just so much that you easily can see it. I think it is the right amount of gold/silver on this one. If the gun should have gold on it though. But this one is apparently for collecting, and when we come to this subject, collecting, there is no limit for what people will order.

I also think that the european style, italian and English style of engraving is very interesting.
