The grade 4 20 gauge at Bass Pro shops was not the same one that I posted about on the Double Gun forum. Bass Pro sold the one that they had listed but it was returned. I know because I called and spoke to a guy in their fine gun room. It did not letter as a 4. Apparently it was an 0 that was refurbed. They have it but are not going to put it back up for sale until they at least try to find out who did the work. They told me that, for instance, they already know Turnbull did not do it. I guess they are hoping that they can create some value if the work was done by a "known" craftsman. I also was told that they got it by buying it back from someone going through a divorce who bought it a few years ago from them, and in both transactions the dollars involved were as if it were original.
