It has a Texas/Alamo theme. I sent Mr. Davenport a letter to find out more about it. The engraving was added after he finished the rifle, so he does not know. So, I am just going with it represents the stars of the Texas sky until someone comes up with a better explanation. I did not like it at first, but it has grown on me. The rifle was purchased from Cabela's in Buda. All they knew was that Cabela's buyer bought a whole estate, but would not disclose the original owner's name. So, I'm working on finding out what I can. It had a matching 375 H&H, which someone else bought. Mr. Davenport said the customer was from the Houston area. If anyone has more info, I'd love to know more. Anyway, I'm enjoying it.

Here is the floorplate.
