Very interesting. I wish they did a clear closeup of the engraving details.

The beavertail forends are a bit odd to look at on H&H SXSs.

Thanks for sharing.

One would have to say that the "work of art" aspect of these guns is more considerable than the actual guns, themselves! Beautiful, simply beautiful.

The curator(?) says in the video that the set cost closer to seven figure amount.

I agree the set would easily run into seven figures plus Philippe Grifnee engraving means a long long wait maybe 5 years to complete the set.

Hopefully H&H will make a set to commemorate the American War of Independence :wink:
