Stevens 620A shotgun

[kjohn]

I have recently added a nice old 620A 12 ga. to my pile. It has a serial number, so it isn't really old. It has been used, but not abused. In my humble opinion, it is a real shotgun! Fits me like a glove. I can't wait to get the old girl cleaned and take her out for a shoot. Dang, I love old guns like that!

Nice old gun. I recently fully restored an 820B that looks nearly identical. Quite smooth and flawless functionality. I sold mine for $220.00. What did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

I can't really remember. $200 likely. I took it out today and smoked clay pigeons with it. Love the old shotgun! Was probably hitting 75-80%. Not for anybody with weak, short arms, though.

You got a sweet deal kjohn. I notice that a lot of bluing is gone. Not a problem if it's to shoot trap, but in the duck blind that could be a problem. The 820B that I restored, I fine bead blasted the metal, parkerized it and then Dura-Coated with high gloss black. Boy, did it shine. Nothing is more satisfying than taking an old girl like that and standing shoulder to shoulder against high end Browning, Berettas, Perazzis and making a good show of it.
