Parts gun oddities
 

Picked up a GH 1 1/2 fr. 12 ga.(87812) for parts the other day. While looking it over i found some interesting tidbits. In the book as a D2 but has Twist barrels with the correct #. I'm tempted to get a letter just to see if they are a second set or a misprint in the book. Trigger guard is not original but...has no serial number on the outside but does have one on the underside.(229146) not in the book. Barrels were blued & the solder gave way at muzzle end & they separated about 3 inches. I can't make out any Twist pattern anywhere even on the flats which are clearly marked T. The stock, which has major problems in the head area, seems to be from a later VH grade by the looks of checkering & butt plate., but the grip cap is period correct. The forend wood & iron are excellent & is why i bought it. I think someone went to a lot of trouble to put all this together. Keeps me fascinated.

We would like to see a bunch of pictures of this gun.

Here we go....takes me awhile.....

YOU bought that gun. I saw it through several cycles on GB. The seller finally came down to reality on his opening price.


The barrels are deffinately from another gun. Re stamped.

You're probably right Brian, but they either restamped the extractor or used original because it has the right gun number. What can I use to try & remove some bluing to find the twist pattern ?
