Yes. Several, but, I think the reason has more to do with a gun sitting without use for a decade or two, and then, somebody, usually a heir, taking it for a spin around a clays course, sans maintenance, and any oil that was there turned to varnish, and scored the tube.

I had an old timer tell me to never let the bolt fly home after pushing the button, unless the gun was being fired. He claimed this stressed the bolt and the front wood. His 1950s A5 was pristine, and the front wood wasn't cracked, but, I didn't take his advice. My gun got a "Stalker" stock years ago. I have several different species of rainy/cold day guns, probably tells you something about the weather here.

The Stalker stock isn't cracked, either.

Best,
Ted
