Im bound and determined to bring this old shotgun back to life. I received the parts I needed from www.gunpartscorp.com, and went to work. About 15 mins of fiddling around got it all together, and it seems to work properly. I replaced the forend, as the original one was cracked. I could have probably repaired it, but the original replacement part was only $25. Why not. Tomorrow, I’m going to take it all apart again and clean the snot out of everything, and steel wool the surface rust off. I’ll also sand the stock down and fill the dents, dings, and chips. I’m not going to do a fancy finish on it, maybe a little stain and an oil finish. Keep it simple. That will make a nice little Sunday morning project while I watch the bucks chase the does in my backyard. I haven’t researched a smith to cut down the barrel to 20” yet. That’s a problem for another day.

I’d be concerned. They may not be safe. Unfortunately you can’t send back wet bullets because they’re so unstable. I’ll take them off your hands for a small fee though.

You can shoot underwater, so no issues.

Finn 28-76 Finn target rifle bright and shiny bore. Look at pictures $1800 Trades welcomed lever guns or semi auto rifles next Dragoon is gone I have others if anyone is interested also M 91’s 1924 Mosin Dragoon (Not a Ex ) Bore has nice lands and grooves but frosted may clean up. $450 ffl on buyer I’ll meet up with in reason look on gun broker I’m lower on prices on both cross posted so time stamp counts I’ll take it wins

I'm concerned for you and don't want you to take all the burden so I'll split this with you. I know, I'm a great guy:)

Your ammo is fine!

They probably will take care of it, but I doubt it will be done properly.

Go after them for the damages! That's inexcusable.

Holy crap!!!!!!! They damn well better be taking care of that!

Barrel shroud - I have one on my Cx4.

Comps and brakes are very subjective. I have a BCM Mod 1.5 on a 14.5” gun. Warcomp is on a SBF. I also have two SF MB556 and a SF Warden Blast Diffuser for the SF devices, a few PWS FSC556, a Battlecomp 1.5, and some Troy Medieval and Claymore Brakes. I also have access to A2s and Vortex flash hiders at work. I never really noticed a difference in how loud they are. Also make sure you are comparing apples to apples. The same brake on a 16”, 14.5”, and 11” gun can feel/sound worlds apart. I haven’t noticed much of a difference from a shooters perspective. From a bystanders perspective, that’s a different story - The old school Bushmaster Y Brakes and the Lantac Dragon are obnoxious.
