Keith, No worries, I'm not put off by the process. I don't want to invest that much into what would likely be a one off! I carved a stock for this gun long ago and had the original PG trigger guard straightened out for a long time. Finally got a long tang guard in the white, fitted it and it looks a bit odd now. I'd like to get it blued. There is no local 'smith that has a set of tanks that could toss it in with the next run and I don't want to send it off. So thought I'd try it myself. The gun is not a showpiece, Ithaca/SKB 100 that I use alot. Thanks again!
