Start with the very best stock, action and fore end you can find. That will be the heart and soul of a gun like this. Contact Aaron Little and follow his advice. Aaron has built quite a few conversions with very good results. Look for a heavy 12 or light 10ga on a good quality action. I read where you mentioned Russian actions in another post. It is the old story "You can not make a silk purse from a sows ear". There are quite a few British boxlocks with bad barrels that can be bought for a song if you are patient. From a builders perspective, it is very hard to become enthused about a project like this when the client wants to start out with an inferior action. No matter how hard you try the end product just will not be up to par unless you start out with a good quality donor. Best of Luck. \ Steve | |||
