Sitting a gun show this morning, I was presented with a box full of long slide Lyman 48S & 35 sights & three G&H engraved mounts (2 identical single levers (Identified as Kornbrath's work) and the double lever windage (Identified as Joe Fugger's... I am no expert, so if opinions are different, you won't hurt my feelings) ... I sat and stared and slowly pulled out the various items, it was wonderful to experience their timeless craftsmanship. The owner recently turned 75 and wanted to begin downsizing his shop. We've often done business, but this was a shock... I couldn't leave them behind... I consider myself to extremely fortunate! I also added the last pic of a rifle with the full Fugger engraving as an example...not mine or available as far as I know. thanks.

Wow, those are beautiful! I especially like the oak leaf and acorn motifs, and the scroll at the base of the two levers in the last picture. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Wow, those rings and mount would almost make me drill holes in my iron sighted G&H 03. Well, almost. However, I have a few other G&H side mounts that could be replaced. Are we selling?

Found pics of a G&H Joe Fugger engraved rifle... stunning. I would really love to find a Fugger engraved rifle in need of the finishing touch...see first post.
