I've been shooting my 32" 16 ga. Elsie for about 7-8 years now, I guess, and the last time I shot it I noticed, while cleaning, that tiny cracks were beginning behind the lockplates. I got some recommendations for stockers to work on it, and decided to try a Georgia guy to do the job. I wanted the problem corrected before it got noticeable, and wanted it glass bedded so that I don't have to worry about it in the future. I shoot this gun very well, and plan to use it many more times in the future, so wanted to make it bulletproof for 1 1/8 oz. loads.
