Just because there are serial numbers in the wood doesn't guarantee it's originality. Someone skilled enough to make the forarm could also duplicate the numbers.

If memory serves Ed Muderlak had a 12ga skeet gun with a splinter forarm. never say never.

Wouldn't there have been a fore end tip escutcheon? I thought all VHE's had them, or were they not installed on beavertails?

They were not fitted to the beavertail or "trap" forends.

To paraphrase Sen. Phil Gramm, "I have bought more guns than I need, but not as many as I want"

It gets tough when you can't remember where you put them, or forget if you still have them or traded them.

If I had driven the 90 miles to Easton, I would now own that gun. Sometimes we show some restraint.
