I’m eagerly awaiting the return of the DHE from Buck Hamlin, hopefully next week. It needed all around tightening, dents removed from barrels, opened the chokes a bit, repair mangled screws, reblue. Once I have it back, I will decide what to do about the wood. I will have the Silvers pad I bought from Dean installed, in place of the ugly white line pad, and the stock refinished. The stock is very sound and other than various dents and scratches, should be just fine. The forend though, I’ll need to decide whether to simply have the current contraption refinished and checkered to match the stock. Or, invest in having a new forend made. It’s a shooter for sure, but a 32 in DHE with vent rib and straight grip makes a heck of a shooter that I can feel will become a go-to clays and trap gun. I can’t wait to shoot it again.
