Kirk: I have removed the SN from my post per your request. I was merely trying to give you the information that you asked for. All the info posted here, especially that from Mr. Day, should be helpful to you in establishing value for your gun. While not extremely rare it is an interesting old waterfowler and could, probably, tell quite a story if it could talk. Part of that story will be in the PGCA letter when you receive it.

As for Mr. Huffman: "Opinions are like a......s, everybody seems to have one."

Just My Humble Opinion, George

In that serial number range, your gun could have left the factory with bores at approximately .775 or they could be bored at approximately .795 to .800. Anything much over .800 would be considered a gun that had been cleaned up. If your gunsmith does not have a bore micrometer, he is known in the trade as an average gunsmith, not one to work on or evaluate your or my gun.

Thanks! I appreciate that. When I get the letter back I will let everyone know where were at.
