GH Before and After

[Mills Morrison]

Just had my favorite GH 12 gauge restocked by Brian Dudley. The old stock was worn out. For some reason, the early dimensions fit me well, so I had Brian reproduce the original. The fore end was worn, but still sound, so it was cleaned up and recheckered. The results speak for themselves.

It looks great, Mills! What is the amount of drop at heel?

[Mills Morrison]

About 3. Just like the old one

[Mike Franzen]

To me the wood to metal fit looks perfect. Like the wood grew out it. Great job Brian and great gun Mills.

[Rich Anderson]

Nicely done Mills and to Brian a great job. Mills you will be proud to pass that one down to the boys. 30-40 years from now I hope there sitting in a duck blind with that one remembering dad and the stories behind the nicks and scratches.

[Mills Morrison]

We'll be working on the nicks and scratches as soon as we get some decent weather and bird season starts

[allen newell]

Very nice Brian and Mills. By the way, Brian will be re-stocking a VHE with wood very similar to yours. Brian's wood work and detail is exceptional.

[Mills Morrison]

Thanks Allen!

Mills I did',t see any Duck tape or staples in your old stock. You didn't jump the gun a little on this one. Ha. The gun looks great.
