Some of you may know Troy Adams? He goes by "Big Sky" on several hunting and firearm websites. He is an amazing artist that went to Africa with me a few years ago to get some ideas for drawings first hand. Recently I asked him for a bear drawing to use as a template for the engraving on my FA .44 mag revolver. He provided this beautiful pencil drawing for the project.
Well the Engraver nailed it! On the other side of the cylinder he engraved two bear tracks as well. Now when I see the two engravings I know the top chamber #2 is the empty one. I had him engrave numbers on all the chambers as well. Much easier to know the top chamber is empty with the visual art work.
Take a look at Troys drawing and the work the engraver did. It's astonishing to me! I could not have hoped for better. The metal is cut deep too, this is not just etched it's carved!
