Daryl, I new I had the info on the Scott engraver but have only just managed to locate it. Albert Brown was indeed a master engraver, but he was not the artist responsible for the origional designs of birds engraved on Scott guns. The person responsible was; "James Charles Scott, artist, master engraver and partner in the Scott business."
James was a trained artist and was responsible for introducing the bird, oak leaf and scroll used to decorate many of Scotts guns. It is reported that based on a review of existing guns that customers likely had the option to pick and mix engraving design combinations.
