An elephant skin case - OK. Perhaps a patch of elephant skin styled engraving on the floorplate, perhaps. But this seems outside the boundaries of good taste. Even a little weird.

This projects comes from people saying what else can we do, to make a rifle special, but you dont have to do anything, the rifles themselves should be just finely made specimens of a certain type and style, its the associations that make a Rigby special. Adorning the rifles excessively does not make them even more special. Unique yes. But ugly things are unique too.

But then I am not a person who likes engraving on a rifle in general, much less the ones with gold wire and such put into them. I am ambivalent even about case hardened colours. So I am a hard line traditionalist.
