I had been looking for a "cheap" shotgun to do this.
I picked up the Wingmaster on the bottom for $107 out the door. The "dial a duck" Polychoke created a great deal for me at Gunstop in Minnetonka.
I had purchased the other Wingmaster about a year ago to cut down, but after I brought it home, I cleaned it up, noticed it's in great shape and that the full choke barrel has a 5-digit matching serial # to the reciever - 142XX V . It's a joy to carry in the woods, the receiver and wood is in great shape, and I ain't messing with it. I had thought I'd buy a cheap short barrel, but I never see them for less than $100.
The Polychoke Wingmaster is a little scratched up and the buttstock has been cut to attach a pad. 6-digit serial #509XXX V.
I'll get out this Spring and play with the Polychoke, but I'll be cutting this one down to 20" or so for a HD shotgun. Unless I find a real cheap barrel. Ideally, I'd like to add ghost ring or rifle sights, but a bead sight will be fine.
Any comments, ideas, "don't do it!"s on my little project?
