Re: VINTAGE CUP----ROLL'S CALL
Great pic - I don't think those guys spent much time trying to figure out which after market chokes to buy . . . .

Re: restock an ugly fox sterlingworth
I am having a 16 ga. SW restocked right now - I found that it can be challenging to restock a SW because it is hard to get it done "right" without ending up way underwater on the gun cost-wise. The stocker I ended up using was recommended to me by a dealer who has used him a number of time...

Re: Where to have stock refinished
These guys are in upstate NY - I have not used them but talked to them about a Fox project and they seemed knowledgeable and easy to work with. They do a lot of restoration work.

Re: Stock Question
Mike - you sense my weakness. Once you start looking at blanks on-line, it is amazing how quickly your budget starts to creep up. Actually, that was basically my budget - I have seen some nice blanks in that range that are very attractive but that wouldn't overhwhelm a CE grade gun.
