What did you think of his engraving ? By the way did you order the how to make a air gun book ? And yes to talk with this man would be a pleasure for sure and to own one of his master pieces would be a honor that I am sure is way out of my reach .Marvin

The work is that of a master craftsman, and gunsmith, no doubt about it.  He should publish  coffee table book of his art work.  I'd buy that for sure.  But as I am not a metal worker I didn't fee compelled to buy a how to make an air gun book.  But I suspect it caught your eye for sure.
