Thanks Edgar for posting those pictures. It is disappointing to me that i didnt take before pictures. I cant even begin to tell you how nice Edgar was being when he called it a basket case. I never dreamed this gun would ever amount to much. It was in the basement of my parents house and I used to look at it leaned up in the corner. The wood was black, there were two plates of thick steel with holes drilled right through the stock with bolts through it. Then someone, probably my grandfather wrapped it with what looked similar to electrical tape so the wrist was really fat. the rest of the gun was just covered in the nastiest oil. You couldnt see any detail in the gun other than the huge dent in the left barrel. I could not be more proud of this gun. The only thing I regret is not doing it sooner as this was my dads fathers gun and he passed away last year. I wish he could see it now.
