What a great engraved Flatgate. I can't imagine the time and effort that it took for an artist to do work like that by hand.

This 44 Magnum was engraved and inlaid by Alvin White in January 1959. You can see the degree of similarity between it and the Ruger Single Six.

There are some similarities there. Don, I just noticed the eagle on the hammer! That's cool.
