Oh indeed, it's a gun that I bought beyond all reasonable use. I mean to say I mostly hunt quail and woodcock, so a 32" 12ga has little use. The chokes are indeed full and fuller measuring .685 and .690. I wonder about the turkey killing power of a load of #6s from a Polywad vintager, but I suppose there is only one way to find out!
It will look nice on the wall if nothing else and I've wanted to try my hand at re-etching damascus. It sounds as though with some patience that could be possible. I had originally thought about having the receiver CCH redone, but the more I see them, the more I think they look a little strange on an old gun, so it will likely stay in the white as it is now. The wood is in fine shape, but could use a new coat of finish... or not.
