Well, tonight I noticed an area on the bottom rib in front of the forearm lug is loose too. When I bought this gun, the barrels rang like chimes. A gunsmith checked the gun and said it was fine. I have shot quite a bit of sporting with this gun. I wonder if the barrels got so hot that the solder melted??? Well, my decision is made for me.......no choice but to have all ribs relaid. Since I'm going through all this, maybe I will have Paulene upgrade it to a grade III, or a IV, or maybe a V since the barrels will have to be redone? Lots to ponder......
