Kalifornia dreamin', baby! Well done, hombre. Stubbs isn't so bright but is a tough little feller. One thing, though. He HATES hacksaws. I had one in my hand and I started hearing little screams from his muzzle. Some kind of PTSD deal, maybe..
I wanta check out this hacksaw cut when AcesNeights gets Stubby on his way to Tn after Hawaii.
That pic of the cut looks like it was done with a frigging wood cross cut saw. And had been mislined while cutting at least 2 or 3 times. JFC.......
Kamo where you able to find the another 1300 barrel??? IIRC win 1300 and I beleive a 130 model ranger model ???and the sears model are interchangeable.
I went thru something similar with a bulged 1400 mk II replacement barrel. Lots of 1300 barrels out their when I was looking for mine. Slumlord has that bulged barrel as a land corner marker now I think.
Sold that win 1400 MkII. Actually a fairly decent semi auto for what it was. I ran the pizz outta it shooting 5 stand and sporting clays. Ran 3 boxes of shells thru it fast as I could reload it one day for schits and giggles proof fire.
One day on a dove hunt for literally 35 40 mins straight. I couldnt feed it fast enough. Birds were getying by me doing rapid reloads. Gun was hot hot hot hot. Didnt malfunction once the entire time I owned it.
Missed this earlier. I've not even looked to see about a replacement barrel, bud. I picked up the defiled 1300 for short money years back just to have an extra barrel. The original shotgun I bought was a 1200 'speed pump' Ranger model I believe. It was the extra 1300 barrel that the Grubbster butchered. Truth is, after I got it back I just chucked it back in the safe and it's been there for the last 7 odd years. Wouldn't shock me if it was further sabotaged/messed with mechanically... That was my very 1st long gun and it has a world of fond memories attached to it, but it's now just one of more than a dozen scatterguns I now own and now really just keeps the others in the stable company. I do appreciate your thoughts and input, however.
This was your 1st long gun. Went thru all this crap.
