Just communicated with the fellow via email. He says it is a very nice handling/swinging gun so was he thinking of upland hunting with it. He was going to tie it to a tire and fire it with some modern loads to see if it was "safe" for him to use. I talked him out of that so he is sending me the gun to give it a look over. It will probably be about a week before it gets here, then I will photograph the proofs.
