A guy I work with also runs an engraving business and is donating a trophy for an upcoming shoot. We are having trouble finding any good figures for the trophy. All the shooting ones seem to be sporting clay and trap, with a couple of high power rifle ones too. We are looking for somthing with a guy kneeling, prone, or standing, with a SCOPED rifle but not set on that. Anybody have any ideas or know of any better suited figures than what we've already found? The only other thing we can think of is have a 2" brass circle or star with a image engraved onto it. All ideas are welcome. Thanks in advance for the help.

How about one of these guys, might be kinda funny and cool at the same time because their so iconic. Could paint it gold too.

I love the goofy hand made trophies, ones that are made out of busted up AR500, or a bunch of spent casings turned into a sculpture, and those army men I think would be a great idea. You can do generic or engraved standard trophies, but the ones that someone sat down and put together from scrap parts or toys or something always have more fond memories, are great for a laugh, and always look unique.

Not for nuthin', but when my bro had a heart-attack and was in the hospital for a triple-bypass (surprised us all) instead of doing the usual "bring flowers" BS; my Lady and I made an "ammo-tree" out of 12 and 14 gauge copper wire and brass casings. He got MANY comments and compliments on it. Both in the hospital and out.

I'll see if I can get a pic of it from him, but he still has it to this day, on the desk beside his computer.
