Dennis, in the main I would agree with you but this one was poorly stored and while the original pictures didn't show it, the barrels had rusted on the outside with pitting that could not be left alone. The original finish on the stock was practically gone and it looked terrible. Inside the frame there was rust etc. that had to be thoroughly cleaned with some parts replaced. There are no plans to sell this VHE but there are plans to use it heavily and it will be left to my grandson when I'm gone. I'm not going to leave him a piece of crap or something that he has to pay for restoration. If the gun had been better cared for, half the work would not have been necessary. But I appreciate and respect your comments and as I said above, in the main we are in agreement.
