Thanks all for the comments and help. Gun was restocked, very nice job but I am not too fond of the forearm nor certain parts of the wood work. I have found the original stock and now trying to find the forearm. Problem is that a family member has the pieces and can't remember where he put them.... ;-). I will post pics after its found..

Also, I spelled the engravers name wrong it was Franz Marktl. I know for the purist, I guess the gun has been destroyed.. Oh well should make a fun upland companion.


Curious, does the book say how it's choked?

Hey Kev;
Is that the Eckmeyer gun? If it is I seem to remember it being sk/ic. I remember Bill bringing the gun into Howard Donahue's gun shop in the 70's. He had that little setter which he loved to hunt quail with (back when we had quail to hunt around here). I think he had the gun choked for that. Either way bring it and I'll measure it for you.
