How's this for engraving???

Full-coverage deep-relief scroll on a pinless sidelock.

Will you be able to bring a 400 Heym to the DRSS hunt?
You should bring ALL the doubles in your inventory.

No game-scream cartoons, thank God. Nice.

I won't have a 400 ready by then, but will have a 470 HEYM and a couple of others for your enjoyment.

Too pimpish for me. But very nice work.

You can borrow money, but you can't borrow time. Don't wait, go now.

577 NitroExpress, No PM from you was received, but I did get one from New_Guy.

New_Guy,

Is this rifle a "JUMBO" - heavy HEYM or the 88B Sidelock? Does "Pinless" sidelock mean it's hand detachable too?

Just checked my PM and it shows that I did a new response in an old thread between you and I. Also, just did another one.

Weird why it isn't showing up on your end.
