Steel Butt Plates on VH grade guns
 
Did they put steel butt plates on any VH grade guns? I have a twenty gauge with a steel butt plate. It is serial numbered to the gun.

Not as a standard feature.

The standard butt plate on the VH guns was a dog's head butt plate.

Can you show us a picture?

Is this the one that Ed Good sold on GB? Serial number was in the 157,000 range.

You are a brave guy in buying anything from him.

See here a previous thread discussing this gun.

Now that you have the gun and know the complete serial number, you should order a letter on it, if available.

You might want to get that gun thoroughly checked out.

Here are a few pictures. Seems to be a solid shooter, the stock is more 1 frame size. I guess I should disassemble the receiver to check everything out. After reviewing the pictures l can see that the serial number is overstamped. I actually had intended to replace the butt plate with a reproduction DHBP. If I removed the blue on the receiver would it also remove any case that may be left? Thanks for everyone’s input
