Kirk: Good luck with your project, but think twice about restoring the stock it has so much character and history. A restore would wipe it all away.

Looks like Mr. Pratt wasn't too careful with his gun.

Nice. Certainly worthy of your efforts. Do you have the forend? More pics?
Sorry, I see the other photo. That stock looks like a beautiful piece of wood. |

Do you also have the original 26" barrels? Looks to be another set of barrels in a box at the bottom of the picture.
Good luck with the project and of course pictures when you are done.

Sounds like Mr. Pratt was a serious bird hunter.

I have the original Titanic Steel barrels, they've been shortened to 24". I find it interesting that one of the special instructions was "1 1/2 frame". I thought that frame size wasn't something that a customer would be aware of.
