Roland BaptisteThanks,
When you write commissions you talk about my price?
If you have my publicity it's better for me

Roland BaptisteI'd like too.
I realize that single parts and it is that which I like. Nobody with the same engraving because everyone is different.
I like also the luxury to have a single weapon

Fla3006 would like to see/hear about the commissions (= orders) you got from and executed for customers.

3 shots do not make a group, they show a point of aim or impact.
5 shots are a group.

Roland BaptisteThanks, me, it's when you want for your rifle...

28 March 2007, 20:01
Roland BaptisteNot yet, because they have your engraver and it's very difficult to work for him.
Now, I'm interessting, of course.
Generally I try to work for a private customer.

AfricanHunterIt looks very nice, ggod job!
Roland,
The engraving you do is very beautiful!!!
Good work.

Roland,
Except for the floorplate with the wild boar, there are no examples of engraving on a bolt action rifle on your web site. Will you be bringing an example of engraving on a bolt action rifle to Rambouillet? Do you have a picture you could post of an example?

Roland BaptisteAt Rambouillet you just see any samples and me in working.
It's not easy to take a rifle in a another country because I do a lot paper for that
