Advice on Buying My First Reproduction
I am new to this site, but I have been planning to purchase a 20 gauge Reproduction for about a year now. I am in the process of divesting of several guns in order to fund this project and am getting close. As I go through the search process I was wondering if any of you guys could share some advice on what to look for, where to look and what questions I should ask of sellers. My optimal gun would be a 20 gauge, 26" barrels, IC/M, double trigger (won't hold my breath), splinter forend and pistol grip. I definitely prefer the French walnut (light blonde with straight grain) to the Claro. Reasonable pricing (not looking for a bargain but don't want to overpay), where to look, what to ask, etc. would be much appreciated. One thing I have noticed is that many of the guns on Gunbroker, Guns America and Guns International have been sitting out there for a year. Are they just overpriced? Thanks in advance!
