stocking of repros

[matt koepnick]

thanks opening day. after looking at several other great threads in this forum i wound up on the one with pix of wood... i'm going to have to revamp my assessment on my gun. it's maybe average looking compared to what i have seen as the norm pictured there. when i bought it, it had honest marks from being enjoyed by the previous owner (presumably hunted with). top lever is far to right, but gun has been more than moderately used. my wood is plain with little dark streakings. stock finish is intact. i'll work on getting thru attaching pix as i can. as for my stable of shooters she is is still my best one, and i still love her dearly. it just doesn't come close to the rest of the bevy of beauties i saw on that particular thread. thanks matt k

I disagree, it’s the best one b/c you’re enjoying it and you’ve made it yours.

Welcome to the forum, Matt.

Now, about that 16ga...keep your eyes peeled because one will show up for you at some point, but be ready. They’re the best of the bunch if you ask me.
