Hows the bores ? MY Bonehill is a ugly ducking it has a rough outward appearance but the bores and nice and shiny ! . IF you got good barrels then nothing is impossible . I paid 1000 for my Ec Green I just got and it has nice wood and metal . but bores could use some polishing . Nothing That Brad B cant work his magic on . I almost bought a Ithaca lewis 10 ga when I was 17 but decided against it . looking back I should got it it was in pretty great condition and it was 1500$ . I know its hard but when you see a hard to find 10ga double my moto is get it ! if you can swing it of course . Theres a flues 10 ga on gunbrker now for 800$ but the barrels are blued and looks to have a home made forend .

The bores are beautiful some of the cleanest barrels I have seen. I do not know if they have been honed as I do not have anything to measure them, but I am think they are untouched.

If it wasn't ever shot with bp then the bores should look good like you say , From what ive read it was shooters not cleaning their barrels after shooting bp that causes pitting . Congrats on the new 10 bore .
