Just a little update on this project. Last year Chris Dawe came down to Tucson for some quail hunting and while here started the stocking of my Remington. The wood then went back with him. This month I went for a visit to Newfoundland and Chris completed the project thanks to calling in some special favors so I could shoot it while there.
I have a few pictures and was able to hunt with it and shoot a Ptarmigan as well as a snipe with it before Chris put the finishing touches to it. I will post more pictures when it returns which I hope will be in the next month or so. I will also post my experience with the export process, the company I used and cost.
Chris is a true artist which is reflected in his dedication to details and professionalism.
Since each of these guns were customized to the customers request and since the gun had replacement wood when I purchaed it.
Chris worked with me to not only stock the gun to my dimensions with a fair amount of cast on but to lay out a checkering pattern using some references from Charles Semmers book.
