Masterpiece, I thought the same thing on the price and overall appearance of a four screw 48. I'm happy with it and any extra perks from say Mr Jinks are icing.
I'd read threads from Doc44 & others already knowing to not expect a letter with rework details. But what's most interesting in this is comparisons to R Smith's work. That's pretty neat and I'll be sure to add that in the info to Mr. Jinks.
Saxonpig is very likely correct on the grips. Someone probacly did take a set of smooth targets & work the finger groves in them. The inlay is perfectly done. Now granted it's just straight lines, but someone had a pretty good hand & eye. And the "crack" really sets it off. Not a detraction at all IMHO.
