Had a guy send me this due to postings we made in a Canadian Veterans facebook group. Kind of a what is your side hustle , hobby type group.
He messaged me asking what I would charge to basically clean it up and redo the barrels.
He sent me a pic or 2 and from those I thought..that is a pretty fancy shotgun.
It arrived and I unpacked it to assess it.
Someone had put multiple coats of varnish on the stock, spilled it on the engraved receiver then looks like they used a sharpie to reblue the barrels.
Before pics..
So far I have the stock stripped and the bottom part of the receiver where the triggers are cleaned up. Unfortunately the metal has pits in it and I didn't want to get to aggressive trying to remove them..so I hit it with the buffing wheel.
He either doesn't know what these shotguns are worth..or it's a beater for him as he isn't in a hurry to get it back as he just wants the barrels refinished and the stock cleaned up.
I wish I didn't know what it is worth now.
