Mark:

You've done a fine job of bringing an old work horse back into the stable. As I grow older, I find myself less enamored of fine guns and more drawn to the guns of our grand fathers although I certainly understand the draw of fine engraving and beautiful wood. I've been lusting after a Stevens 235 for a while now. Hopefully, if I find one, I can do as well by it as you have.
