Roger,
Thank you very much, that helps! Any info we can pass on to a buyer/collector is helpful.
I am surprised they did not sign or mark their engravings in a way that you would know who did them.
We have a Savage model 720 12ga with the wartime proof marks stamped in it. The shotgun is highly engraved by what must be a very good engraver. This would have been done after WW2, maybe in the 50-60's.
Any help would be fantastic.
