Is Buds known for slow shipping?
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Alpine's a long ways from either of you guys!
My Dad is a member at the range there. Nice looking 1100's! The CZ redhead looks good, too.JYD, while you got a great trade for that 686, it's too bad you couldn't get used to it. They are a close second to the Browning Superposed for my favorite O/U Trap gun, and I've shot many different ones. I keep looking at the Tri-Star O/U sitting in the case at work and thinking it'd be nice to have a dedicated trap gun, but it's just too much fun shooting trap with my 870 Tactical Magnum.....

equation, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a
computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

Re: First O/U on the way
Hopefully better than the ones I make , I don't work from a script, no production crew, no professional editing. The 686 was custom fit to a man with shorter arms than I , he used to be a serious competitive trap shooter, his other gun cost in the high five figures, passed on now.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
