I think we have at least one Masback winner on the forum. Maybe richcapecod? And I know that I've seen more than one pictured here on the forum. I believe that they were engraved at the Dept., but can't remember any details.
Edit: Hey, my memory isn't so bad after all... Here is Rich's quote from another thread:

Sometime later the department stopped awarding handguns to a classes top shooter. Whatever happened to “iron men and wooden ships?”
