Well cutting down the .410 stock and forend was well worth it, yesterday James got his first squirrel, fat gray at 25 yards or so he was a rather thrilled kid, as was dad! Big sis went along as well but nothing showed for her. Thats the same Duckback hunting coat my Grandma bought for me when I was 8 or so,, Blame thing is 37 years old at least,,,,
