Gold inlay bands approximately 1/8" from the end of the barrel and 1/8" forward of the receiver. Engraved and double signed by master engraver Angelo Bee, the receiver has 95% coverage featuring incredible scenes of "Diana the Huntress." A tri-tone gold embossed scene on the right depicts Diana laying against a tree with her dog, a bow and quiver. The left presents with a similar tri-tone gold embossed scene showing Diana laying across her dog with bow in hand and quiver to her side. The top presents a two-tone gold embossed scene with Diana and bow, walking beside her dog, with quiver on her back.
