About 4 years ago a gentleman brought a GH 12ga Damascus 30" to my club. He was asking about having the stock refinished and what it would cost. I informed him it would depend on who you sent it to. It could be reasonable or it could be quite costly. I offered to try to clean it up for him as most of the stock and barrels were black like the gun was in a place where coal dust could accumulate. I took it home and cleaned it and it came out quite good, like it wasn't used much at all. When I returned it to him he asked how long I worked on it and I said about 5 or 6 hours. I said you should enjoy shooting it and he said someone told him the gun was only worth $900 to $1,000. He then asked if I could give him $400.00 I could keep the gun. Needless to say I could not get the money to him fast enough. I have been enjoying the gun ever since. Very good Damascus pattern and only a couple of very small marks on the stock.
