Well said David!

This would be one of the caveat's I didn't add to my postings here. There is a something to be said if you have the abilities & correct tools to perform the needed work yourself.

By the way, that is one super nice upgrade gun you shared with us--Thanks!!

Yes, the upgrade pictured is a great gun, a great project. However, the gun in question is best purchased at a bit lower price by someone who has access to a stockmaker who will build a new stock and forend for less than a grand. I don't have access to such a stockmaker.

That was my $100 bargain. I knew the supplier & could hand pick my wood.

Default VHE 20 gauge

A quick look at the Parker VHE 20 gauges on GI shows 9 guns that range from $4 K to $19 K. If we throw out the top and the bottom guns and just look at the rest that are more reasonably priced there are 7 guns that average about $6350. Draw your on conclusions as to what the market is offering and what the value of the subject gun is.
