This gun is a family heirloom, even as David points out that it is only a Crescent. It was in a condition that was not only embarrassing to look at, but also very depressing, since I remember when it had seen better days. This restoration by David will return it to the condition that I remember it in (better actually), and will be something that I will be proud to pull out and show to friends, and also pass on to my son.
Can't wait to see it completed!

Thank you John.
Hoping to test fire tomorrow or Saturday. So when does bird season open your way?
