Good Lord! Everyone look at Rock Island Auctions website and take a look at the Fox they are going to auction soon. Kornbrath and Gough engraved with 2 sets of barrels. Unreal.

I'll be interested in this story as it unfolds. For openers:

I wasn't going to say anything. The images don't pass my smell test.

I'm posting this 45 auto for comparison purposes. This is one of Kornbrath's best known engraving jobs done back in the 30s. It was commissioned by a Texas oilman hence the Western theme. Jim  Below is a sampler of Kornbrath's engraving:
