| I found two references by Googling "John Warren, firerams engraver". There is a Browning Centennial set "engraved in the style of John Warren" for sale, and I found a reference to the Ruger Creedmore Rifle, which appeared on the cover of the 1969 Gun Digest. Mr. Warren did the engraving. |

| John, I believe John Warren did a few (less than 10?) stocks or complete rifles before devoting himself strictly to engraving. IIRC he built a left hand Weatherby Mark X in .300 Weatherby for Dave Petzal and he also may have built a rifle or two for John Amber. Kurt

| John Warren was one of those legendary gunmakers who could do it all. Many of his pieces were shown on pages of Gun Digest back in the 50s & 60s. A favorite of John T. Amber. He was especially known for his fine engraving. A rare and valuable rifle you have.
