Anyone else's BUL showing finish wear? I have worn a good bit of the bluing off of the safety button head, and starting to wear the plastic wood grain cover off of the stock in places.
Of course, it has had use and abuse. That is what I bought it for. Over 50 birds this season, mostly pheasants. Two turkeys hunted like pheasants. And lots of range use.
Numerous long shots, this last trip, late season, educated birds, if you didn't take long ones, you just didn't get any! 25, 30, or more, feet of lead to kill them at 50 to 70 yards. Bird killing machine! (That Annie Oakley practice at close to 90 degrees sure helped! The wobble skeet from the 35 yard line didn't hurt either!)
Been carrying the M2 for back up and real bad weather, but haven't had it out of the bag.
