The few Boss guns I've had in my hands were A. From the same period, and B. Chopperlump constructed. Perhaps I have assumed, incorrectly, that that is the way it should be. As the ad plainly states, Boss was well into hammerless ejector guns by the time this was built, and every one of those I've seen is a chopperlump gun. If I am mistaken, I stand humbly corrected.
I was thinking the RESTOCK could have messed up the balance rather then the sleeving, Larry-that wood looks mighty dense. But, I'd be willing to bet it is pretty good as is. Note that you don't get a real good photo of the front of the gun and the lever-that has me a bit suspicious. But, the rest of it is beautiful. Just beautiful.
Lowell, until jOe posts a topic or a photo of something that matters, lets not worry about it too much. He seems to bring up Viagra, and cowboy 'stuff quite a bit in his posts, perhaps that is where his expertise lies. It is a big tent BBS, right? Our very own "Brokeback" BBSer? We just never know when we will need a homeless cowboy expert in the homoerotic, er, "arts". Every gallery has it's experts, and, it's peanuts...
Best,
Ted
