Dick had a pretty little Martini action rifle that had had 4 holes drilled and tapped in the top rib to take a sight, that his client wanted obliterated, so Dick made screwed inserts and peened them in, and filed them down and I re-engraved parts of the name, and the pattern on the rib. An alternative would have been to weld the holes up, but this way was less invasive – and it was only intended to be a quick and straighforward job. You can still see the marks, but only if you look for them.
