I posted this at the newguy section, probably belongs here.
And some of you know me from other sites, my comments about adding thin wall screw ins, are humor, sorta
Looking for ideas on upgrades/freshen ups for my latest project.
I just picked up a vh 16ga , o frame, 28" barrels. Looks to be about 5lbs 12ish(I was using a digital fishscale that said 5.8, I was informed the scale wasn't doing the math to the right of the decimile) Got a new scale that will read it correctly, but the gun just left for a jersey shoot this weekend, so I don't know what the real weight is.
Anyhow, it has resonable CC 50-60%, the stock is cracked at the wrist(repaired) the toe was split off near the butt plate screw and badly repaired.
Checkering is poor. and LOP is 13 1/2(I shoot a15")
This gun will be a hunter, I'm leaning toward a barrel reblue and probably a restock, no recolor or upgrade at this point. The $$ to repair the stock should make a big dent in a restock. ( I have a local guy that does my other stuff whos good, and resonable) How fancy can I go with wood on this gun?
My other fox Ae project is getting a stunning hunk of turkish, not sure if it's appropriate on this gun..
I'd like to see what others have done to freshen up thier shooters
VH upgrades, for hunting
