Yep,

I'm looking forward to being able to take it to the range and see what it feels like. I bought it, but haven't shot it as I didn't like the look of that muzzle area. Didn't want it to spread before I could get it fixed.

Thanks to Steve again for such a prompt offer of help- and understanding my desires perfectly: not a showstopper, but a shooter that is safe and reliable.

I am getting to love this board!

Now I have questions for other threads- related to the other 2 'classic' SxS I picked up: a 1948 LC Smith (improved) Field 12g, and a 1960 J.P. Sauer & Sohn Model 60 Deluxe.

Classic 'field' SxS's are what draw me in- that way I can have more than one!
