@jim_white_engraving・・・Here’s the finished Practical Renaissance, or Renaissance Practical. The Browning Renaissance engraving of course, was done in the FN factory in Belgium. The pattern is leafy, and its detail is done with a liner graver which adds speed. I’m sure if you cut that pattern day after day you could really do an amazing amount per hour. I could tell I was beginning to pick up speed as I went along. It’s not particularly attractive to me, but it is correct if one wants to emulate an FN factory engraving. I want to do a Citori with the old Midas Superposed pattern, because as I started learning about firearms that was the ultimate  level of shotgun I ever saw pictured. I carried the boot knife while I was working for AT&SF. We weren’t allowed to carry firearms, so I took it along. A field man switching boxcars in Wichita at night could find himself in some dark, lonesome, and potentially dangerous places. #browningpistol#hipower#engravedhipower#browningrenaissance#renaissancehighpower#bbqgun #jimwhiteengraving #gunbling #engravedgun #engravedpistol #pistolengraver #autoengraver #9mmauto #9mmbrowning#engravededbrowningpistol#engravedpistol #gunnuts #firearms #pistolsmith #gunfinishing #dailygundose https://www.instagram.com/p/B1J2Kt4AmX8/?igshid=1g3i5pvwnajwn -- source link
