HOOOOLEY COW!!!! That is fantastic!!! Good on you. I have always dreamed of something like that, but dream is all I'll ever do. But it is good to see some people have their dreams come true and I can sure see why you are happy about it. Heck, I am happy for you too.

The Adamy double has some wood blems and a piece out of the forend, but it's a rock solid gun. My grandson has already talked me out of it. He didn't know I got it for him all along. It appears to have been used as a slug gun; it has claw mount bases. The bores are pristine, and it's a 70mm chambered gun with chokes close to mod and IM. I need to fix some scallop cracking on the right cheek.

Awesome drilling. Thanks for sharing.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

That's a mighty nice Simpson. I run across quite a few shotguns with claw mount bases. They liked a gun that they could do anything with. You might also find a notched extractor indicating it had an insert barrel also.

Didn't have the notch, but I sometimes use the edge of the insert extractor and the edge of the shotgun extractor as my witness mark. I works as well as the notch, but it isn't as handy or fast.

About half my inserts (einstecklaufs) don't have the locating pins. I just scribe a line across the insert extractor and the shotgun extractor and line em up. Works just as good. A little harder to do in the dark, up in a tree stand
