This is a trigger guard and a buttplate for a 17 HMR rifle. The design is almost Arabesque.
I’ll post more photos as it nears completion.

Gouse Freelance Firearms Engraving
Superior Quality Workmanship from Renowned Master Gun Engraver, Michael Gouse
This Colt features American Scroll engraving on virtually 100% of the firearm. This makes for a very beautiful display piece or an exceptional carry gun. This pistol is based on a 1903 Colt pocket model that I had done several years ago. I can engrave different guns to make them look as if they were originally designed to be a matching set.
This is an easy way to customize your hunting rifle! This post features an engraved trigger guard, floorplate, and grip cap – this easily adds personalization and elegance to your rifle without breaking the bank.
It also allows for you to have the action, bolt, breech, and rings engraved at a later date.
The engraving can be in many different patterns and styles. In this example, American Scroll was used. It can also be done in Renaissance, English, or Relief-Carved Oak Leaves, among others.
