Milton the dark spots are were the finish is worn down to the bare wood and most likely the owner rubbed in linseed oil which has darkened with time. But it does add character in my opinion.

8 Gauge Event
Great times for sure,
Enjoyed shooting the big guns with everyone, Thanks for pulling this together there Craig. Stan Hoover |
John Hosford was shooting the black powder loads. I was in the vendors tent the first time he touched one off. It shook the whole tent. I have never heard any gun boom like his did. The recoil was tremendous. I would have loved to see that go off at night.

I will never forget the first time i heard Frank's 10 at the New Years shoot. The concussion lifted my pant legs and was louder than any shot i had ever heard outside the army. The 8 must have been something to see and hear.

I wonder how much powder they put in the 10 ga.
