What did you pay for it?

 

[Sailingvan]

very nice gun there

I 'm probably gonna shoot it for a while. Then I'll get the wood redone its nice now but it has a few minor flaws I'd like to have touched up. It is the best quality gun I could afford and it turned out to be a real gem.

congrats! thats a fine shotgun you got there

Very good $ value a lot of gun for the money compared to some of the imports available today . Personally I would leave the wood alone if the gun fits well I would send it to precision arms and have quality chokes installed

either the pics are misleading or I see rust all over!
If I do, tear the beauty apart and sand it over good

No rust that I can see on the gun. I think the camera picked up some dried oil none the less a good cleaning is in order

excellent value at that price--i would look under the ejectors and see if that is just old grease or rust----
