I had a restocked vhe and when the town old gunsmith sold me his parts the original stock was up there in the rafters,of course the vhe was long gone by then.He had a lot and I mean a lot of stocks that he had kept from restocks and the owners did not keep the original. I mated up a rare m70 with its original stock by calling the name on the work order. I wonder how many people kept the original back in the day,of course that was before everything became collectable \.

Goose? You ain't going goose hunting, don't lie to the boys like that.

I have shot me many a fowl just not recently...ok 15 years or so. I once had three Snow Geese dead in the air at the same time using a Browning A5.
I like waterfowl hunting but not with the non toxic shot of the era (steel) nor do I care to eat them. I would like to give the early Goose season a try with the D hammer gun I got from Don. I think it would be nice to put that #2 frame 12 and its tight chokes to work on a goose hunt.

It could possibly be arranged, but to hunt with me you'd probably have to cross the river. Our early season goose shooting in Michigan is spotty on good years and non existant in others.

At .017/.027 (if I recall correctly), I wouldn't call that D hammer "tightly choked" but it has shot its share of ducks, including a trip to Beaver Dam. For geese, Destry and I have Big Parkers...

Yours is a 1-Frame isn't it Larry? Mine is a 2-Frame and the difference in frame sizes/buttstocks probably accounts for the apparant difference in plugs/rods between yours and mine.
