George - how does one tell what kind of condition a gun was in prior to restoration? Just curious.

PPat - gorgeous looking gun. Looks like it's ready for business.

I assume you are referring to me- George Purtill.
Bill Murphy's post says what I meant. A gun with a serial number of 242055 would seen unlikely to be in such bad shape as to need a full restoration. Plus it is not a field gun that would be beat up. Trap guns are shot a lot but not usually abused. Most all of my guns in the 240,000 plus range are mint.
