That's FUNNY! laugh

It doesn't hurt my feelings none, the rifle I traded away was a Taurus pump action rifle - so no great loss.

Fellas I really appreciate the candid responses and humorous replies! grin

I got my answers and am going to get the barrels looked at (any reccomendations for a good gunsmith in the Salt Lake City Utah area?)

Like I said, if I did pick up an ugly 'tomato stake' then OK, no great loss!

I am (personally) excited that I have a pre-1900 British shotgun.

I am not having delusions of grandeur or anything regarding its value, just seriously wanting a valuation that my insurance will accept in case of a loss. (again).

Thanks all! I appreciate your time & replies, even it is just to rib me a bit!!! crazy

Will, Thank you for your service to this great country. We all have vintage shotguns and we aren't unlike the vintage car guys. They find a rusty T-bucket in a barn somewhere, pay too much for it, spend a bunch of money and time on it, wind up with something that is beautiful to look at and provides significant pleasure to play with on the weekends. Then they sell it for a third of the money they have in it and start all over.......and they have a ball doing it 'cause it's what they do.

Vintage guns is what we do. If you like old guns but are hung up on being "upside-down" on them, prolly should look for a different activity and way to spend your money. If not then take that beautiful old gun as far as you can back toward what it was on the first day of it's life and enjoy the experience to the max!

One more thing......Joe is the village idiot around here so take anything he says with that in mind.
