I have a buddy getting rid of a Beretta 424 SxS that belonged to his father. I'm either going to buy it for myself or resell it. The 'twist' (ha ha) is that his father was left-handed, and he *thinks* his father may have had the stock steamed/twisted to accomodate him. I haven't verified this yet; I've only seen pics of the gun.
Assuming the stock has indeed been been twisted for left-handed use, I have a couple of questions for you shotgun experts:
- Is there anywhere I can still obtain a replacement stock for a 424 SxS?
- If not, has anyone here had a stock twisted (or untwisted) before? Who does that kind of work, and about what should it cost?
- If it turns out not to be feasible to convert back to RH, would you suppose that the value of the gun is generally enhanced or degraded by the LH twist?
Thanks -
Dave
