Just stumbeled across one at a local gun shop. Bought it on the spot.
Anyone know how many rounds i should run through it to break it in? |
|
Congrats on finding one.
Tear it apart and clean everything, lube it up and shoot ~200 rounds. You'll have a good idea how it shoulders and where it points and then adjust your stock if necessary. Lifter welding is the only thing i'd recommend, if you plan to shoot matches. |

Crums is the internet fav, about $40-45, 4-6 weeks lead time.
Crum I am going to try and get it done locally in Atlanta this week at a well established machine shop. You can also try my cheap-nick method of using a few layers of aluminum tape. It has worked fine for hundreds of reloads drills and 4 shotgun stages at matches. I have replaced it three times as it gets worn. Look down the shotgun forum page for the post. |
