I have seen this many times on all the forums. Someone will tell their ideas about changing a classic shotgun they just purchased by opening the chokes, cutting the stock, porting or adding choke tubes. Then I cut in and say you are ruining just another of the dwindling supply of unmolested classic guns that are left in this world. They most likely will snap back that it's their gun and they can do as they wish. But in reality they will own it a very short time, as most of us do, and then put it up for sale in not too distant future,usually a couple years, with all their destruction added to the gun.
