Did you ever have a gun turn out too good? I am now really tempted to make the rest of this circa 1914 gun look as good as the stock does. With the new (replacement) stock on the gun, in the factory original length (13 1/2-inches) and with the factory butplate, she's 6lbs even. The shorter and milder, semi-pistol grip stock doesn't even seem to be a problem, and if anything it compliments the 25-inch barrel. This gun is light, quick- pointing, and with 20 points of choke, should be deadly on upland gamebirds. If I thought I could get a solid rib and a re-blue on it in time for early October, I'd be sorely tempted. It would be $500 well-spent.
