I grabbed a pretty good condition Stevens model 77h for $153 otd. It's replacing my girlfriend's shotgun that got stolen a few weeks back. Feel free to weigh in on this plan of attack.
I'll be taking the barrel from 27" to 18.5 using a pipe cutter to score a ring and a hacksaw through the rest. I do have an angle grinder but I have yet to read about one being used to cut off a barrel. I'm assuming that's for good reason. I've got a mill bastard file to square it up and a round file to clean up the edges. I'm not entirely sure how to go about putting a new bead on it as I don't solder.
I'd also like to remove about 4" of stock and use a slip on recoil pad. She's a small girl, 5'2.
Am I missing anything other than pictures?
