Some months ago, I asked Ken if he could do something "Remington-like" on a Remington 17 I had. I knew I wouldn't ever find an engaved "17". Here are the results, John Gillette at Classic Guns did the blue. Not the best photography but you get the idea. Simply spectacular!!

Ain't too shabby for a man without shoes. The pintails REALLY look good. Congratulations on owning a such a fine piece of work.

Is the action finish Classic's Carbona blue?

Ducks and birds on one side and dogs and birds on the other. I know the photos are bad, but I did try to show both sides.

Granite, I am thinking of have my 17 upgraded as well. I know who I will go to for the engraving. Is there any chance you could post a few pics of the wood work as well? Great looking gun enjoy it!
