Alan, when I was at Hollands about 2 years back I saw the pair of 12's he had ordered being engraved. He ordered an identical (for each maker) pair from Boss and Purdey, maybe others, they were all deep relief rose and scroll from memory but they all had a distictive rose gold flower on each lock plate, I guess these are all now readyand are replacing what he is selling, best, Mike

Is that you Scott?

I agree that the guns are fabulous and worth every penny, to me at least (not that I can run to the likely prices), but you have some equally nice pieces for sure.

I just keep asking myself "but is he happy", probably extatically with a collection like that, I am green with envy
