When I last spoke with my builder he was looking for a stamp to put (S Hawken - St Louis) on the barrel. That may or may not happen depending on finding someone who has the stamp and is willing. The stamps are out there.

I've learned not to rush your builder and you will get extra details you couldn't otherwise afford. I expect he will have it finished soon.
And I will be so happy to get it I'll be bragging about it everywhere!
