How do I get a sunburst recoil pad and how much does that cost? How difficult is it to fit WITHOUT damaging the finish on the stock or refinishing it?
I bought it for $1150. Why? A few considerations. Spend a little less, find one on gunbroker, deal with shipping, sales tax, and the FFL, it was easier just to buy this one. Plus, the one posted to this thread that brought $1800 tells me this isn’t a $600 shotgun, it’s not like the junk on Gunbroker currently.
Plus, at my point in life, and I’m as cheap as they come, sometimes you no longer give a rat’s ass about a few hundred dollars one way or another.
Plus he’s a long time friend who was offered $1200 for this several years ago.
And he’s a friend, I’ve known him over a quarter of a century.
Plus, he doesn’t have junk and this last statement might go a LONG way…I have this 20 gauge VH Parker I might want to sell now.
