Title: The Final 1300 Makeover
Post by: Spring Creek Calls on May 31, 2015, 09:32:03 AM
I have finally reached the end of the transformation of my 1300 Black Shadow (fiberglass stock/forend) to an old school wood stock/forend. My attempt at matching a ribbed forend to a stock from 2 different suppliers didn't end well. I finally found a used matched set that was the perfect stain color and condition I was searching for. The old parts are on eBay.

Very nice shotgun, I had the same wood on my 120 ranger, but I swapped it out for a set off a 1200 from the 70's that's walnut with a nice figure.

That's a bottle of Old Overholt rye whiskey. It's an old brand my father used to keep in the house when his whiskey drinking friends stopped by. I buy it in memory of him but must admit it goes pretty good straight up or mixed with a bit of Canada Dry ginger ale. :icon_thumright:

I have one of these in my safe that has killed a bunch of birds. I guess some day i should take it out and use it again it is a pretty little gun with the 22" tube and the engraving on the reciver.
