Here we go getting caught up in the refinished VS original debate again. The English have been sending guns back to the manufacturer be it H&H, Purdey, Mc Naughton or who ever and it doesn't seem to matter value wise. I see no harm in restoring a gun that has been well used/neglected. I have restocked several to fit me so I can use them. What's the point of having a nice gun if it doesn't fit and therefore can't be used?? I restocked (and made it a straight grip) a CHE 20 that had 4 inches of drop and was short to boot. I can now use it and enjoy it.
Allen your kids, grand kids and hopefully great grand kids will enjoy the new life you put into that gun.
