New rubber can easily be affixed to that original base.
It looks like a good honest gun.

I’m going to call you tommorrow if I don’t forget and discuss the pad installation on the original base . I also need a spring for the forend on the this one and a top lever spring for a VH 1 1/2 or 2 frame I forget which size that gun happens to be .

I hadn’t planned on going to Hausemann’s in June , but that is looking as if it will change . So if that’s the case I’m up for shooting 8’s there again .

Just fired this DH six times a pair of .785” punkin balls from the right barrel that stayed relatively close to each other but not POA . A pair of .795” punkin balls from the left barrel that didn’t stay close to each other or POA . And finally a load of 000000 buck ten pellets from the right then again from the left also at thirty yards and yes they looked fine for deer decimation . From the right barrel 10 of 10 were on the paper and to point of aim . The left barrel put 9 of 10 on the paper but were slightly high left and I assume the tenth pellet sailed over my box .

Wow, 7 lb., 12 oz. barrels……. My entire 2-frame 12/30 DH turkey gun weighs exactly 7 lbs., 12 ounces…

This thing is a breath of fresh air compared to the one I got in Easton a few weeks ago . That one had 10 or 11 pound barrels .
