I bought this Uggie (model unknown) off someone on the shotgun world forum and it was a mess. The top lever spring was missing, and a coil spring was placed over the automatic safety rod to push the bolt back into battery. One hammer spring was missing, and was replaced with what looked like it could have been the wayward toplever spring. It had been left to rust and then the whole rotting pile had been painted with gunkote, which is glorified Rustoleum.
I did all that I could, and it made a trip to Cole Haugh to finish up what I couldn't figure out, and my son has been shooting the crap out of it ever since. I don't worry about him dropping it that is for sure. If it had been a nice gun to start with I wouldn't have been able to bring myself to cut several inches off both ends either.
He should outgrow it just about the time my daughter is ready for it, and when she is done with it I am sure it will "find" another kid that needs it.
