Are you saying you viewed a Savage Model 6/Stevens 87? Engraved? Pics, or it doesn't exist!

Is this gun rare?, or just the fact that it is engraved?

Not rare, I have a Stevens and Savage model. They were cheap guns and I find it hard to believe, but excited to be proven wrong, that someone had one engraved.

I got one. Not engraved. Still shoot it occasionally. “Gill Gun”, “Click Clack”

Can’t say I’ve ever seen or heard of an engraved one.

Sorry, not engraved, he called it that, it stuck in my head.
Checkered.

You know, that's a handsome rifle IMO. Factory checkering? I doubt it, perhaps an expert on these can shed some light? Nice patterns and good execution - I wonder if the diamonds were purposely left flat or were worn down with use? Thanks for going to the trouble to get pics!

I'd say aftermarket checkering, it's not a style of factory checkering from Savage that I'm familiar with. Like Gary said tho, it's nice work.
