I too would like to reiterate the question regarding the restoration of engraving. I too would like to know whether there is a professional restorer in India who can bring back to its former glory engraving that has worn off.

I believe restoring any engraving would be costlier than getting a brand new engraving..

Hi Jonah,

Do you know of anyone who can do brand new engraving on an old double barrel? Name and address please.

Regards.
