Okay, here's the plan. I talked to Brad today, and I'm going to have the bbls. done. I'm not going to do the receiver, because I actually like the color it is now. I am going to have the stock bent upward, a little, and have the hook re-welded with the SS process that Brad uses.
I can't send it off right yet, because the money is going to come out of a project my wife and I are working on, and spending money is still a little tight, but I want to have this little gun ready for dove season.

I'll get some good pics, both before and after. I know it's just a lowly P-Grade, but I am addicted to Damascus/Twist bbls, and this little gun is a jewel. With the combination of frame size, weight, and bbl lengths, it handles like a custom two piece cue stick.

I would have the barrels redone. That should not cost too much

I agree on the barrels. I know Brad does excellent work, but so does Bill Schwarz. Bill may be a little more affordable and I know he's faster. I would highly recommend him as an affordable alternative.

Threads on 0 framed, lightened recivers, in any grade, are timeless.
The gun I used to refer to as 'The Gun From Hell' because of the seemingly endless time and expense that went into it, above paying too much from the gitgo, is a grade two and has become my favorite hammer gun. Chris Dawe did an exemplary job on a new stock, and Brad B did the barrels and case hardening. I loose myself in thought when looking at it. 30 minutes of admiring it is a very healthy alternative to 30 minutes of television.

Is that the best picture you could come up with Edgar? You could grace us with a few more...
