Thank you for your insight. Dont want the lazering thing done nor do I want the 2 drop system installed. Local shop has a nearly new IAC 87-1 which (if I am reading all the posted infor correctly) can be a decent functional version of the 1887 although not as good looking as the Chiappa version. If I purchase this particular peice, the wood is rather dark odd colored tone and so, I would defarb the wood. The wood on your peice is nice looking and so, I am now confident that there is a decent look to be had with this shotgun.
If memory serves, some years back a pard of mine had a cheap version of a '92 rifle with an odd substance of buttstock. It was probably some type of wood but of a foreign species that I was not familar with. It was so dense that he couldnt get it refinished worth beans. Cant remember the maker nor importer and truth be told, not even sure if it was a '92. Time dulls the memory it seems.
