I appreciate the comments. As far as the wood extensions are concerned, a lot of them don't look much different than the wood buttplates you see these days on the Italian guns. They just tend to be 1/2" or 1/4" longer than those plates they put on Guerinis and some others. Maybe not that big a deal, but they always struck me as odd. From a balance standpoint, I'm sure they are much better than a pad, though.
I like that gun on GB - not looking for a hammergun, though.
Thanks again for the help - anything else is appreciated!
