sorry about your stock. once while duck hunting in the ca delta in a makeshift floating blind my best friend dropped his LC Smith ideal grade on the gunnel of the aluminum boat. it broke of the stock which was beautiful. he was sick also, and I was shocked. he eventually got it repaired at considerable expense. when I hunt with my 1906 VH 12 ga. I worry some when in the boat or canoe with the dogs and all the gear. now my friend and I duck hunt with synthetic stocked mossberg 500s, and remington 870s in the boat and canoe on really bad weather days. it seems with some of my friends with really high end guns they tend to worry more about their gun than enjoy the hunt, especially with the kind of duck hunting we do. I can understand their worry, I would too.
