Default Neat old tymey stock repair

Here is a neat PH that I picked up a month or so ago. It is a 12g. on a No. 2 frame. The gun has honest wear with a nice patina. But I really liked the amount of barrel finish that remained as well as the great condition of the bores and tight lockup.
The neat thing was the old wrist repair with two pieces of brass. The wrist must have been broke through at some time and the owner "fixed" it this way. I think it is cool how it meets the tangs on top and bottom and how all of the screws are finished flush with the brass plates.

Not the first one of these that any of us have seen, I am sure, but it is interesting to look at what people do to keep good guns going.
