re-stock

[BRDHNTR]

DelGrego in Illion, NY restocked a 16 of mine but just know that DelGrego tends to make his stocks as Remington did way back when.

Heavens forbid !!! Most guys here are against taking a couple of thousands out of the chokes but a perfectly ok with replacing the wood on a Parker. Where do we draw the line?

if the old stock is damaged beyond use, a new stock puts the gun back in action

if the old stock is ok but does not fit the new owner, all he has to do it keep the old stock, and it can always be reinstalled at a later point to return the gun to original


if you alter metal - its permanent

I am alright with replacing the wood "if" it's the best option for the situation at hand but I would certainly rather not do this when there is a better option I can make work. Some times we just don't have that option with wood, now with chokes that's another matter IMO. Not sure what the wood situation is with the gun in question here but I am curious now. What is the reason for the restock Andrew ??

[C.O.B.]

I have restocked a couple. I can shoot F/F chokes but not a 13 inch LOP or 3 1/2 inches of drop. Keep the original stock if you restock and the gun can be put back to factory, take out the choke and there s no going back.
