Show us your "scratched up" firearms
I've only got two, a Browning Grade 5 Model 12, and a BPS Medallion.

Rifles, Pistols, Revolvers, shotguns... what do you guys have?

I currently only have my (5/79) Model 60, high polished by S&W and engraved by Wayne D’Angelo*:







*Wayne is a Master Engraver for both Smith & Wesson and Colt

Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

I only have a low quality scan of some low quality scratching, but I couldn't put a price on it. Dad was stationed at Limestone Maine in '54(?), bought this in a hardware store. '55 or '56 he was stationed in Japan and asked his mother to send it to him so he could have one of the local guys do it. But she didn't want him to have a gun Big Grin so she wouldn't send it. She finally gave in a little and mailed him the cylinder stuffed in the toe of new pair of baseball spikes. He paid $5 to have it engraved.



First handgun I ever shot.

very nice fellas, YellowJacket I'm a big fan of Spanish Side x Sides! That AyA is a beauty.

Actually I do have a few more scratched up guns... His AyA reminded me..

Here is an Ugartechea 221 with very modest hand engraving around the action and recoil shields.
And a Victor Sarasqueta 3E ejector with some nice engraving.
(I just shot a Sporting Clays event at Griffin & Howe this past Sunday with the 3E and it busts clays nicely!)

I've only got two too ...

If you really want something you'll find a way ...
... if you don't you'll find an excuse.

I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either Wink
