I'd sell the guild gun and keep the W&S. It does look like someone recased the gun and had Briley chokes added. I'll wager more money has been spent on the gun than it will sell for. I think it is a refinish because there are stock blemishes inconsistant with the high level of action finish.

I use the same gun cases for moving guns into and out of the house. It might leave the house empty and return full. It's always the same cases. She has never "inspected" the contents.

I am another who has a "gun fund" and her "fun account". I match my shooting expenses with deposits into her account. It makes shooting more expensive, but it is more than worth it.

Last year while shooting grouse in Scotland, my wife was thrilled everytime I shot a grouse because it added to her shopping budget at the High Street shops.
