Topic: Who Engraved This Gun? Number of Responses: 7
Who engraved this gun?
I have a Smith&Wesson 44 Magnum dating to 1955 or 1956 that was heavily engraved after delivery. The information on who engraved it is scanty...there is no paper trail. One rumor has it that it was owned by a General who returned it to the S&W factory after purchase for engraving. But, as I understand it, S&W does not engrave over its logo, nor over other stamped info on the frame and on the barrel. This gun is heavily engraved....floral pattern and the heads of 4 different animals (two on each side). The S&W logo is engtaved over as well as other info stamped into the gun metal.
Most engravers sign their work somewhere on the gun... but I could find no initials or name anywhere. There is however an unusual design on the rib(?) ... please see the photo... this design had one collector give me the opinion that it may be the work of Alvin White. Another told me that it looked like the work of a European such as Josef Fuger.
If anyone can offer me opinions on who the engrave could be, I'd greatly appreciate it. |
