Yea obviously the adjustable recoil pad isn't original. What should I do about that? What would the original have been? A skeleton?
This one isn't quite as heavy as your 8.75# gun, but not far off. Like I say, fine for skeet, but after a day in the field bird shooting, this gun would feel VERY heavy. I've lugged an M-14 (9.8#) and an M-1 (9.5#) around all day, but that was when I was a pup....and I was encouraged by a loudmouthed platoon sargeant....can't quite do that any more!
