I really like the looks of this reproduction. Fit and finish look real nice. But how about the engraving? It does not look like laser engraving, is it cut engraving? http://www.gunbroker.com/item/598126639

It looks like its cut. Probably with a power engraver.

It’s a foreign made reproduction, in a caliber never chambered for by Winchester with a high gloss varnish wood varnish finish (also never used by Winchester) and machine engraving. I’d rather have a good quality color photo of the real thing.
