I see the the head on a Type 41 Bugatti....... Depends if it is done well......patterened and uniform. Easy to jewel.....easy to jewel poorly....... I love fine watches from the makers point of view. Must be done well and tastefully. I’ll put it inside a gun.......[/quote] Found this

I'm not really a fan. I have a few. And I'm the one who did them.

I’ve heard it as machine turning, didn’t know purpose but knew it wasn’t decorative.

I have seen a number of revolvers that i think of buying until i see the Bisley Grip. It sure does not belong on a Ruger. Too each his own. +1

I was kinda quoting General Patton from the movie. I have no idea if he actually said that in real life. That said, I still like pretty wood better than anything else on a handgun grip, and I’ve seen some very nice ones on here.
Full disclosure, I also have a Super Blackhawk with a Magnaported barrel, but it came with the used gun. I’ve thought about getting the barrel shortened to 5” but I just haven’t done it yet. May not ever, it’s a pretty dang good shooter as it is.

Don't like jeweled/engin-turned hammers or triggers. Don't like porting on revolvers either. OK - I go crawl back under my curmudgeon rock.

I also don’t care for jeweled hammers and triggers. But it wouldn’t be a deal breaker on a used gun for me like porting is. Jeweling is simple enough to remove.
