thanks all. Yeah I'm torn as well. For a gun with all this precious metal on it I could easily seen an engrave silver tip. It seems that there is a hole, not through the for end like for a screw, but for say anchoring the tip to the wood. I have pics but I don't know how to post here. I can tell you that is is the gun pictured in the very first picture in this article
