That is a beautiful gun!!!! Bobby
Thank you Bobby, you're very kind. Thanks to Stever as well. Excellent pics, BTW, and I like the black chrome receiver. Thanks for posting them. I'm sure that your gun is more what he had in mind than mine is, but that's all I have pics of.

I looking this thread over, I realized I posted and didn't even answer the questions in the opening message. Sorry about that.
Quality of workmanship - I'm no expert, but I'd rate it as good to very good; similar to what I'd expect to see on guns that cost twice as much. Not what you'd see on $5,000 guns.
Wood - The wood I've seen on basic (not SGr) De Haan guns is what I'd rate "a bit above average"; again, comparable to $1500 or so guns from other manufacturers. The wood on my SGr has been accused of belonging on a $30,000 shotgun. I'm not saying that's true, but it sure was nice to hear!
In essence, I think we get quality and materials that are comparable to guns that cost twice as much, and I know that Mark De Haan takes a personal interest in keeping his customers happy.
