GG,
I, too, take dimensions very different from the average shooter. I have guns with LOP out to 16.25" and lengthening the stock can give me DAH of 3", which is unshootable. As far as I am concerned a gun that does not fit has zero value. I am not a collector-I shoot guns. Look to Keith Kearcher for a transplant-he did one on my Flues and was transformed from an ungainly family heirloom into a treasured, well fitting gun that I enjoy immensely. I have also restocked several lower grade guns. Now I have toys I can use instead of bragging about having an original gun that is useless. Gees, it's a VH, not a 20 bore A1 Special. If you really want this gun to fit you get it altered somehow. Then enjoy.
Regards
Jeff
