    That's a hard one as it is a very personal choice though just like you I also prefer simple... Perhaps one thing to consider while choosing your engraving is the resale aspect of it, not that you will ever sell your Double, but if that day comes, the engraving will definitely be a factor. Let us know what you end up choosing.

    The engraving is a personal choice...

    try looking at Perazzi and Kreifhoff and look at some of there great patterns...

    the thing is it take time for a quality engraver to do the work...it has to go into the cycle to come up on there table as these craftsman are booked out ... sometimes years...but you have to wait for the best some times...just like booking a safari with the PH and time of year you want...

    i have one of each that is engraved...it will add to the initial cost and if you per chance want to sell it at a later date you will need to have good quality pattern to recoup your initial outlay...

    quote; any suggestions on type of engraving.

    I personally like fine scroll engraving like this;





    Another suggestion is to have them add a flip up low light ivory sight.
    The bellow sight has the low light flip up sight folded away;
