The target forearm used on the New Model Skeet Guns and the Trap Guns from 1967 onward have a long bolt in from the front of the wood into the forearm iron instead of the cross-bolt. Much like a Parker Bros. beavertail forearm.

To my eye, those forearms are as ugly as a mud fence

You know the old saying opinions are like backsides !

Ok the 410 finally arrived via USPS at about 15:30 . Took the recoil pad off and the stock bolt out . No signs of salt wood on ANY of the metal , the gun appears to be unfired .I'm still gonna test the wood tomorrow just to be safe . Also the period correct Browning hard case looks new !

Central VA is not looking promising for good available dove fields . But as you well know a lot could change between now and Saturday !

We have a friend who has consistently great hunts. Great and even good dove hunts are getting to be few and far between

Thanks !

I think one decent 32" Broadway and I'll be done looking for Superposed !

But now I'm kinda getting interested in Remington 32's again . Had a couple that had been totally rebuilt reblued and refinished , and like many other things I sold them for something else . And now I think I need two more a skeet and a trap oughtta do it !

Our gun club had an older Krieghoff multi barrel set a few years ago for a couple thousand and we should have nabbed it. The ones that get away . . .

I have a K-32 trap gun that was made in the first year or two of production . It's my understanding that this gun is early enough that it was made atleast partially with left over Remington 32 parts .

Four or five years ago I had a pair of Remington 32 12 gauge skeet guns that had been reblued , refinished etc . I should have kept one of them , the gun had a factory vent rib . In all honesty that is THE ONLY shotgun I ever owned that I NEVER missed with . But I shot it maybe 400 times before I let it go all on the skeet field of course and never more then 50 shots at a time .

I'll just wait until someone brings in a nice old Remington 32 skeet and or trap at the shop and I'll pounce if the price is right .
