[QUOTE="Ponyroper, post: 81115, member: 423"] Bought my first gun in college in 1970. It was a used/like new 870 Wingmaster Trap grade with the Monte Carlo Stock. Bought it at the Fargo Scheel's store. Can't even guess how many rounds I put through it over the years. Used to shoot 2-300 rounds a week practicing trap back when I thought I was a good shot. Used it for bird hunting up until about 10 years ago when I decided I wanted something with interchangeable chokes and I bought an 870 Express. I was so used to that straight Monte Carlo stock that I couldn't shoot the Express so I swapped the stocks and put the old 30" barrel on the gun cabinet. I always wondered if it would be worth the money to restore that Trap model to it's original beautiful profile. [/QUOTE]
