Needs and wants are two different things. You just have to make your mind up with that particular gun if its an investment/collector type gun or does it need be a more effective shooter in the arsenal. Obviously your gun ..... enough said.

My dad picked up a 12 gauge VH that had a pinned stock and someone a long time ago cut the barrels back from 28 to 26 to open the chokes, or someone overloaded blew chokes out and cutting back was the cure. Its essentially a cylinder and cylinder gun that is really now not so much a collectors or investment gun but a shooter. You almost have to intentionally try to miss, to miss with this gun on going away targets that are 30 yards and in. He got it for field trials. An old man and an old gun making the most of it.

Btw my dad would never modify a gun in original condition that he owned, but he sure is enjoying his new to him Parker guilt free since he did not modify it. I think he got it for about 8 bills.
