I wouldn't touch that gun in any way shape or form. The V grade replacement barrels might hurt it some but they are documented in the letter. What a great gun even without the original damascuss bbls. If it were mine I'd look for a set of 20ga damascuss bbls and have them fitted to the gun. There around I sold a set this summer. My one question relates to the checkered butt as a BH would have a skelton butt plate and I saw no mention of this in the letter.
Buce I much prefer the straight grip over a PG. I think they carry better and are faster to the shoulder. The straight grip guns outnumber the PG ones for me.
