Guy's, I have an 870 with a Hastings 30" Wadlock Barrel and the Hastings .665 turkey ext. choke, it is a Custom painted Gun. The gun shoots fine but I seem to be tring to out do it. As I was in to see this fellow that builds Custom Guns and Chokes , I had a 100 different questions for him, one was cutting down the barrel, that maytom bugs me about. To get another barrel I would never match the paint pattern. I would post a photo of it but the canadian Company that owns an online photo web wont let me pay in Canadian funds so I am not a member <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>...BT
