Were there any factory engraved #3s? If so I've never heard of one. Would be neat to see one.

Carl Ross has an No.3 action only that has a photo etched nude. I do not believe any complete No.3 rifles etched rifles were made.

The Engraved Action that El Numero Uno speaks of with the Nude Lady I referred to as Lady Godiva was on a No1 Action.
The No3 Action I had was engraved with the Old Man in the Mountain which was/is the NH State Symbol.

These actions are presently being engraved on the opposite side and will being built into rifles by the proud owner I sold them to earlier this year.

I still have the Engraving Patterns that James Triggs used as practice for actions.
Can you post the patterns you have, or are they copyrighted? Would like to see these patterns, I would like to commission an engraving on a K1a one of these days.

Carl,
Thanks for clearing up my confusion on Lady Godiva and a sincere welcome to this "new" group. Our site does not require a host to post pics. You can upload them directly, when you figure it out. It is easy, but not completely straight forward until you figure it out.

No problem posting, forced me to learn how to upload pics to this site. I was expecting plans on paper when you brought the subject up, not actual engraved plates. Very interesting!
