Runar,

I have waited with a reply until you finished your pistol.
It is always nice to get your work back, engraved and hold it in your own hands.
I keep your post, it is a good example, may be I make your pistol later on scale.
Very great job!

Runar:  your pistol looks great assembled.  I'm pleased that you didn't blue or brown the steel.  That would really diminish the effect of the engraving.

Art is not an object.  It is the excitement inspired by the object.

I have referred to this thread frequently these past years to model some of the techniques shown.
A skillset that is hard to find these days has been depicted here and deserves to be recognized.
Thank you for this valuable source of visual aid.
Sincerely,
Jimmy Höer
