Probably wouldn't add value but would maintain value.

If I were on the buying side, I agree with Dean - it would maintain the guns value. Further, it would validate the overall gun because the wood was made (or fitted in the case of the butt) specifically for the gun..since you're laying out the cash..might as well take that step in my view. Using your own words..it would make the gun righteous. JMO

Just purchased my first Parker Reproduction 28 Gauge. Absolutely New in the Case with all the accessories including the wooden cleaning rod and never fired. Here are some pictures of the wood.

Right gauge, right gun, right dog. Congratulations on your purchase! Very nice figure on that wood.

So, Dean, don't you, Dave or Danny know how to say "Go fetch" in a loud clear voice? I would have had Eva ask that question, but we lost her last week. She knew "Go fetch" as well as any pointing dog I have ever hunted over. I love your pups, but let's not make a deal.

That was B.G. (Before Grace) so we had to "go fetch" our own birds.

The pups all have wonderful new homes - no deals to be made there.

I am sorry too about your loss of Eva... I thought she was just a youngster.

Off GI Allen.
Yeh Gary, sometimes you have to make sacrafises in life But actually I like both a double or single trigger. As long as it works makes no difference to me

That may well be the nicest piece of wood I've seen on a Repro. Well done!
