Default Repair/Reconstruction

Sometimes its helpful to know what can be done in the way of repairs. This is a 20ga D top action late external hammer gun redone by the master, David Trevallion. This is a gun of a value justifying the expense of repair.

Sometimes people will believe that if a stock is fractured, it must be replaced, but a skillful repairer can piece, glue and staple it back together so that it is strong enough to handle normal recoil.

Evidence of just why Mr. Trevallion is the "Master". Thanks Bruce.
