If it does not, it will be no big surprise. The Stevens 311 was certainly not the highest end double. In fact I always call this gun the workingman's double.

I'm not putting down your gun, I have two of them myself. They are what they are, a utilitarian double that the average working guy could afford.

I don't know the production numbers of this gun, in fact they also made them for Sears, and other retailers. I do know they made a lot of them, over many years.

I would not bet much that every gun that went out the door was correctly regulated, or would stay that way after getting banged around for who knows how many years.

Both my 311's seem to shoot where I look for the most part, but it has been a few years since I shot them.

I don't know how much time and money I would put in to one that was "off"
