Lee,
I use this one for Roe deer here where I live now in Romania. The plain wood never bothered me. Frank Conroy engraved it for me. The other 2 Ruger recommended engravers said they would have to anneal the receiver, engrave , then re-heat treat. Frank said the factory heat treat was real hard on his engraving tools, but he'd rather not mess with the factory heat treating. I went with Frank. RJ
