you're right PetahW...I don't like to sand them either....
but once in a while...like when a buddy tripped and fell on a sporting clays course...and landed on his hands and knees ( his shotgun was in his left hand) / and the gun slammed into the gravel trail ...and then skidded on the gravel for about 3 feet...( Browning Citori O/U ) ....
I offered to help him refinish it ...and we had to resort to a lot of "steam" to get some of the dents out...and some pretty deep sanding on a couple of the stock and forend edges / fortunately most of it was on the bottom of the stock / not on the comb ...but still..../ its not perfect - but it turned out ok.
