Hi Ed,

I have a 12-ga model 1889 Remington that went through a fire but didn't get hot enough to ruin the springs. The wood is charred and the barrels are unsoldered. It's a very well made gun and all of the screw slots are even clocked properly. I was impressed by that because I didn't expect to see that on an American shotgun. I think that mine is a grade 2. The fit and finish is excellent. I had always wondered about doing exactly what you are thinking of. Sounds like a good project to me as long as the action is strong enough and it probably is.

Regards,

Jim
