i would like to inform you guys that i'v found the worst thing you can buy at an auction for $15, an exploding shotgun
in all seriousness, this is a world challenge ejector 12g with a twist barrel (like damascus but awful) made for black powder shells, it's missing the fore stock and the shoulder stock is pretty much a 2x4 of black or normal walnut in this pic, i'v taken an hour to get it to a good shape now, the screw in the stock doesnt actually reach to the reciever, so i gotta fix that, the half-cock doesnt actually stick, the locking lever is missing the spring and... oh yeah the barrel is a grenade at this point.
what i'm going to do to it, is refinish everything, make a fore stock, fix the lock lever and last but certainly not least, get a sub-gauge tube to go inside it, probably 20g, and then it should be ok to shoot. this isnt a brand name shotgun, nor is it a good shotgun, the only reason people do collect them is because nobody really wants them so i might cut the barrel down (within legal limits of course) and make myself a coach gun.
what do you guys think?
