jOe, I got to disagree with you there. This gun has seen more action than you and me might ever hope to put a gun to. The stock, though solid and uncracked, is worn smooth from shooting. The old practice of honing the barrels every year has the muzzle ends so thin they'd cut you. The locks though are just as crisp and functional as any I've ever seen. I don't think this gun was abused, it was just used to death. The barrels are the main problem; in addition to being a little 'airy', they're shot off face to an extent I'm afraid the chamber block is going to have to be put back on face before a sleeve can be done. I think it just got shot to death and after that nobody ever thought it might be worth bringing back...Geo
