Garnett has already seen these but thought I would post these pictures of my engraved Utica action gun with the custom stock. I bought it with a 22 hornet barrel that proved to have too much head space. Therefore i decided to fit a nice barrel off of on of my 20 gauge guns. I had to inlet the forearm to nicely accept the 20 gauge barrel. I had also found a contact number for the Engraver of the gun and called him. He had done the engraving in the 1990's along with to other 220 receivers as a project to get his work out there for people to see. I asked him what this work should be worth today. He told me he would now charge what works out to 25x what I paid for the gun. he spent hundreds of hours on this one. The other gun pictured is one with original factory finish.
