I just picked up this VHE, my questions are;
- is this a skeet gun
- should I have the large chip in the fore end repaired ? What would you do.
- there are 2 beads look like ivory. The front one is missing how hard are they to find and replace
- what is going on with the checkered butt? Adding weight ?
- serial number 239460 will be sending out for research letter tonight.

Opinions would be welcome

Bob
