Mystery ringing inside Stock head

[Smoothebore]

Brent, I had a GH 12ga Damascus that rang like a church bell when shot. It was an old gun and well used, but probably had not been shot for a long time. The ring was in the top lever, like Bill Murphy's gun, but it went away after it loosened up with use.

Brent, I will differ with your opinion about gunsmiths. I feel you will get more information here than you will get with a gunsmith. Many gunsmiths have very little experience in the field with the guns they work on. My suggestion is to tape any part you suspect is ringing, top lever first. Sorry you feel you got no help here.

Brent,

Have you thought about taking the stock off of the receiver, reassembling the receiver, and testing to see if you still hear/feel the vibration? You'll have much of the inards exposed for evaluation.
