Marks thread (which I did not want to hijack) got me to thinking about what I would like to have engraved on the sideplates of shotgun in the unlikely event I could ever afford a new custom.

As a dedicated waterfowler, I'd love to have a goldeneye or 2 pitching into the decoys with a view of the West Swanton bridge in the background.

For those of you who are not Lake Champlain hunters, the West Swanton bridge is in the middle of what I believe to be the prime whistler hunting area on Champlain.

What about you guys, got any fantasy engraving scenes you'd like to share?

Duckboats, decoys and double barrels...
