Hey Rabbit, way too many metaphors for me, but I like the 'heavy duty' part...I think...Geo

"To those the gods would destroy they give a dented Prius."

I think I might have taken a couple of 9C$ looksees myself but not a gun from a maker with the rep of Boss&Co. So far I haven't died of curosity altho a mite inpoverished thereby. If you succeed in creating an actual shooter, that will be Boss!

If I had just purchased this Boss, I would be looking at how practical and how expensive it might be to have a new set of barrels made for it. There's nothing wrong with getting upside down in a project if you go into it fully informed. Enjoy the project and keep us posted.

I shot the course at Hausmann's this year with a hammer LC Smith that started out looking worse than that Boss. Actually I started with two LC Smith hammer guns which both looked worse than that (other than the barrels of course).

Good Luck!

Better question is how much will it cost to get a gun built around a set of locks...

Because the locks are the only thing left on this gun.

just a thought George...cover those holes with black lectri'cal tape.....then take it down to the local Cracker Barrel restaurant along with the Boss History.

Lean hard on the Boss reputation and the fact that they would no doubt be the only cracker Barrel in the world with a clAp'ed out Boss shotgun hanging on their wall.

Thread is locked...going sideways.

HomelessjOe I suggest you read the below passage again as I concur with it's general theme....If you are not buying or have not previously owned or personally examined (as in recently touched) the item for sale...don't comment on it...Simply put it's not you place to shine black light others for sale ads.

Dave Weber



"You have no right nor place to cast aspersions on anyone's product in the for sale section. It is not ethical for you to play sourcing vigilante and to decide who is asking too much for a product for which you have no interest in buying, and then post your nonsense on their threads.

It is particularly unethical because those that advertise on this site are PAYING for that privilege under the assumption they are entitled to a fair marketplace. They do not wish to be subjected to your appraisals of their goods or services.

Upon selling the gun to George Newbern (selling it for less than I purchased the gun for delivered, mind you), I contacted George to make sure he was satisfied in the way the gun was represented, the proper nature of the packaging,and to make sure it was not damaged in shipment.

In short, (and I've asked you this many times many ways, as have others) why don't you cease and desist with your baseless allegations that others are "jipping" each other on a sale. It isn't right and you specifically have been attributed to the downhill direction of this site, its camaraderie, and its generally friendly tone, even omitting your unethical behavior on the sale/trade board."
