Looking for ideas on upgrades/freshen ups for my latest project.
I just picked up a vh 16ga , o frame, 28" barrels. Looks to be about 5lbs 12ish(I was using a digital fishscale that said 5.8, I was informed the scale wasn't doing the math to the right of the decimile) Got a new scale that will read it correctly, but the gun just left for a jersey shoot this weekend, so I don't know what the real weight is.
Anyhow, it has resonable CC 50-60%, the stock is cracked at the wrist(repaired) the toe was split off near the butt plate screw and badly repaired.
Checkering is poor. and LOP is 13 1/2(I shoot a15")
This gun will be a hunter, I'm leaning toward a barrel reblue and probably a restock, no recolor or upgrade at this point. The $$ to repair the stock should make a big dent in a restock. ( I have a local guy that does my other stuff whos good, and resonable) How fancy can I go with wood on this gun?
My other fox Ae project is getting a stunning hunk of turkish, not sure if it's appropriate on this gun..
I'd like to see what others have done to freshen up thier shooters.
