Rookie Pete here and thanks in advance for your input. I have sitting in my safe a DHE 20ga. This is the only place that seems to have anyone with knowledge of these shotguns. I'd like to shoot some trap with it. It's been in my family a while; letter says it was built in 1938. Beautiful gun with normal handling marks. Got it from my dad who got it from his uncle (I believe uncle was the original purchaser) and it's sat for at least 30 years I know of. No pitting in the bores and the gun locks up tight. Any cautions that y'all would give me? I restore and shoot orphaned C&R .22's but this is a whole different animal I've got here. Any suggestions, cautions or endorsements are greatly appriciated.
Thanks again-Pete
