Where are you going to have that done? I was thinking about Briley or MGW, but I'll need to save up a bit to have the thing refinished and tubes added, it's close to $1000

It's not briley its somewhere back east gunsmith said its about a 3 week turn around. Cost around 150 a barrel normally but he said his prices are a lil lower on o/u or s/s due to there being 2 barrels to do then all you have to do is buy your chokes. I'll talk to the smith in a week or so and he's supposed to give me the exact price list and I'll let ya know where what and how much.

Well I just left the gunsmith and forgot to ask which company is doing it but the price is $55 a barrel plus the price of the chokes and then about $35 for shipping.
