OT..somewhat.
On Michael Petrov's Adolph Springfield rifle picture there is a feature I'd like to get the name for.
On the very nose of the comb, there is a little flared knob/projection...undercut to create the physical shape. I have this same feature on my H&R SxS 10 GA Damascus, c.early 1880s.
What is this "woodworker's gothic" feature called??
Thanks.
