B Frech,

On the presumption that this old Husqvarna shoots like expected, I will be seriously assessing doing a repair as you describe.

Actually, this is first of the nice old Husqvarnas I have bought that needed any repairs at all. Perhaps because all but one were heavily used by hunters back in Sweden, and kept well repaired. Conversely, every Sauer, Merkel or Carl Stiegle club-owned gun I have bought has need one repair to make it excellent shooter - maybe that is why they were club-guns. In the field, they all handle and shoot much the same and I don't see any difference in my trap or SC scores or number of birds brought home.
