Here are a few examples of freehand borders copied from antique locks – I was playing about at the time and don’t have any note of which guns they came from, although I can remember a few. I did these years ago when I was learning and didn’t have a proper microscope, I hope I’m better now – obviously I couldn’t even rule a straight line, but I have no shame and thought there was some value in showing them – I will try to do better examples when I have time! Having said that, if you put these as borders on a gun probably no-one would notice how bad they are (except No2!).
