This is a full coverage late-model Walther PPK/S. It’s been fully relief-carved in an oak leaf and acorn pattern. This is reminiscent of the factory engraved, pre-war, Walther Pocket Autos!

Ruger New Vaquero 50 Percent Coverage
On my last post, I showed you a Vaquero with full coverage engraving. Here’s one with 50% coverage. In the period of the American West, you’d rarely find a revolver with less than 50% coverage as it would have appeared unfinished. The most common coverages in the American West were 50% – 75% American Scroll.


Ruger Vaquero SS Full Coverage
Modern Colt SAA Engraving
Browning 1895
This is a late model lever-action rifle engraved in American Scroll. This rifle features a grizzly bear on one side and a bull elk on the opposing side.
While this isn’t a full-coverage engraving, the gun does feature about 65% coverage. This is a rifle that’s to be used for hunting, not a Safe Queen! However, it’s fancy enough to give you some pretty great bragging rights at hunting camp!
