Hey Geo, I already keep the guys at Polywad pretty flush. HA!

Mike, the Stirlieg is for sure spelled with an I.

Pod, I think they are asking 700 or so. But the cost of the repairs and the refinishing would be considerable. Maybe it's not all that high if you love the gun, but I have strayed from 12s over the past few years. It is fairly light in hand for a 12 though.
