Fri it is....... Not sure what I was thinking as far as dates. What time? and should I make up a pot of chilli?

Any time after 9:00 . Chili sounds good.

Your friend Dean will tell you that you shouldn't hollow out the stock on an 0 frame gun. You won't lose any weight to speak of and you could start a stress crack that will be hard to stop. The more you shoot a little gun, the more muscle control you will gain. Some shooters do very well with little Parkers, but they shoot them a bit. I shoot my .410 as well as any of my Parkers because of good stock fit, a good piece of sanding disc stuck to the butt, and a good Ponsness Warren 800B to feed it at less than two bucks a box.

Bill,
I need to figure out some way to make the gun more dynamic. I am used to shooting light guns. My Aya is 1oz (5.13) more than the vh, before the vh gets the slip on. My beretta is 6lbs on the nose with the 30" tubes,5.12 with the 26ers, my fox Ae is 6.2. I don't have any real issues with any of those 3. The slip on leather pad is 5oz. I had to use a 8oz weighted forearm guard to get it to balance anywhere near the pin. It's really butt heavy..Even with the slip on it's about 1/2" to short as well as around 1/2" to much drop, for me.

The current stock is pretty much junk, which is why I was going to experament with it.

Tim, I'd like to heft and swing that little VH. I've got a bunch of 16 0-frames even with 26" barrels which feel and swing really well.

"The current stock is pretty much junk, which is why I was going to experament with it. "

Tim please don't mess with the original stock, find another stock and use that for experimenting on

Dean it'll be there on fri.

Eric, the old stock really is junk, cracked wrist, badly repaired and the toe of the butt was split off and an even wores job done repaining it. If you look at the picture of the gun hanging on the scale, you can see the crack at the bottom of the butt.
