So it doesn’t look like I should have purchased this one? I don’t worry much about value, but it would cost me at least 450 to have it tightened....that’s a lot to invest. Perhaps once that is done I can try my hand at restocking the gun. Barrels are 28”.

i don't think its a bad purchase - but what additional money you spend on it will determine that
check the recommended gunsmiths list on the board and see what the on face will cost - that must be done correctly but does not have to be that expensive
stock wise- the repair is not difficult if you have a little skill, the tools and the patience to do it right - BUT - make sure the wood is solid and oil free before proceeding
there was a thread on that process - not sure if you can see the pictures if you have a photobucket account
