Jared - It's been awhile since I've been hunting with you, but I'm sure whatever gun you take, whether it's this gun or any other gun, the grouse are safe.

Its kind of like putting the first scratch on a new paint job... Going after a grouse or two tomarrow so you just might have talked me into it.

That's pretty sound advice coming from a "character" like C.O.B.

Would it be safe to say that the checkering might be a bit too pointed up for it to be considered correct for the Trojan grade? Don't get me wrong, It looks great, just commenting.

Not only do the cyanide colors look like Del Grego's work as well as the wood and checkering but the reblue of the barrels was done in the classic Remington style too - something Del Grego is known for too - not silky shiny but instead a silky frosted look. Do you see what I'm refering to? The first picture shows it best.
