I've got a soft spot for old shotguns, single shots and bolt actions especially.
You did nice work. It looks like a factory job.
I was thinking about doing just that to my barn gun, a 1930's J.Stevens 12 ga single. It fires fine but looks real ugly and has no collector value left anymore...
Living on a farm in a rural area, I have shotguns for different purposes. Besides, I just like shotguns. Got "a few."
My most likely "home defense" scenario is after dark, the chickens start raising a ruckus and the horses sound nervous and The Wife "suggests" I go check things out. I go forth...
There is a you-tube video making the rounds of gun forums of this very thing.
It's being touted by the unknowing as a great thing.:eek:
Maybe in the old days with paper hulls it MIGHT work, but with todays plastic shells....................?

I was raised in South Florida (Palm Beach County), back when it was paradise - the 50's and 60's. Gradually it began to get crowded with people from other parts of the country ( and Caribbean). Lots of pavement, stores, condos blocking beach access, bales of dope washing up on the beach...

As far as exorbitant wages, if i remember correctly as a Pvt E-1 I was knocking...
My 195 series cost me $400 used, in pristine condition, 5 years ago. It is adequate for my needs.
Long ago and far away, Uncle Sam loaned me an M16A1 to use. This was to replace the M14 I previously had.
Today, I have a Springfield M1A, but have absolutely no desire to spend my hard earned...
I don't know what anyone would call it, but I face the target 90 degrees on, my firing arm(left) is straight, right hand cups the left with right elbow bent. Off side foot is forward, just like shooting a rifle.
I have shot a handgun like this for 45+ years, and it works for me. I once took a...
Well, since I've been a member for going on three years, I guess it's time to make my first post.:eek:
I'm an Army vet, 1967-70, my hobbies are military history and accumulating firearms. My wife and I live on a small farm with our horses, chickens and dogs.:)
Living in a rural area with a lot...
