Those holes and screw plugs in the rib ruin the gun for me. It is what it is, I agree, but what a shame. I'm reminded once again that those with the financial means to order such a gun new don't necessarily have good taste. And, I guess it's possible a subsequent owner could have screwed it up like that.
It does remind me though of a thread somewhere, here or another doublegun site, that showed how those holes can be plugged, peened, the rib matting hand engraved to match perfectly, and made 99% invisible.
Regardless, those are super photos, shanebevel. I welcome them and hope to see more in the near future.
