I almost gave in to the collector side (kind of like the Dark Side) when I got a Winchester Limited Edition 1895. It looked so neat!

Then I sent it off to have the barrel cut to 20", replace the steel buttplate with a recoil pad and add a ramped front sight.

Now it's a shooter and I love it. However, I'm sure there are some who are cringing when they read this. (To those - sorry.)
