Very impressive work. I can't tell from the picture, but it almost looks like you can see the extractor rod from the right side?

The ivories are wonderful.
The illusion of seeing the extractor rod is due to the special checkering done to the extractor rod housing. Jim told me this was one of the most extensive engraving projects he had ever done (it took two and a half years between his other work load to finish this), and is his favorite handgun to date that he did. Jim said that he could never undertake a project like this again due to his current work load. Again I am very fortunate to own such a prize revolver
