I enjoyed a day at SCI wandering around and visiting with clients and friends. One of the highlights was seeing Sam A. again. It's been a couple of years and it was great to see you again my friend. He pointed me to a gun across the island I never would have seen otherwise. A breathtaking bolt rifle engraved by Frederique Lipi.......I don't know the rest. Maybe Sam got her name and a photo of the gun. It was superb. The Granite Mountain action is hard and she executed a design with marvelous artistry, refinement, and elegance, my favorite piece in the show. Sam had a practice plate in the vise and it should be illegal to put engraving of that high level on a practice plate. The engraving at SCI is nice but aside from a couple of very special pieces, the engraving is mostly house pattern and traditional.
