2. Grade
3. Gauge
4. Barrel Length
5. Barrel Composition
6. Choke - R/L
7. Ejectors/Extractors
8. Triggers(single or double)
9. Stock(straight or pistol grip
10. Butt(pad or ??)
11. Forend (beavertail or splinter)
12. ?? (whatever you want to provide)

I have some of these guns and I am interested in what else is out there. Depending on what kind of response i get I would like to write up and publish the results. You can post here or I would prefer that you send me a PM, email.

thank you
