Mr. Roberts, you are correct, it didn't fit as great as I thought it might at first glance. But not to worry, this 1986 gun had been used very hard. The top lever was way past left of center, the trigger was a bit wonky and the standing breech look like the face of a hard-used anvil. For all that, the ejectors worked fairly well and the gun still locked up quite tight, even with the forend off of it. If the seller had been willing to discount the price even a wee-bit I'd of still been tempted, but there was no wiggle so I passed. Hit two other shops and had lunch with my co-pilot. All-in-all, a good afternoon. There was even an older Winchester 101 there that fit me all right, but it was fairly high-miles too and the price was fairly steep. I guess I'm still looking...
I did just hear the the local clubs are back to limiting the shells you can buy to 2 boxes (it had been 4) so.....we're not out of those woods yet either.
