    Thanks David. I'll need at least one of each screw for the left side. The right is OK I think.

    The stock head is splitting back at the end of the tangs. The cheeks are flared out like when Parker heads cracks. I've fixed the Parker's before with a staple embedded in Acraglass, but way back in this little space may be tough. I'll soak it in acetone for a week and then give it a try. The sear springs being in the cheeks makes it a little more interesting as well.

    Other than that, the forend won't stay on, the barrels have some shallow pits and one or two larger ones in the bores. That said, it has some thick walls, and I'd only shoot light stuff in it anyway.

    Something new to learn.
