David, Indeed that number, 9877, is my gun. I communicated with you back in February 2016. Since that time the gun has languished at a local gunsmith who was frankly scared to work on it. I brought it home and will replace the pin myself and repair the stock. I have not decided whether or not to attempt to fire it one it is tightened up. I am probably the only adult member of the family who has never fired this gun as it has been in circulation since it was new, but it may be time to put it to pasture. In any case, thank you for your quick reply. I did not want to go in blind.
