I had one stolen over 20 years ago. I had a 30" full choke barrel and a separate assembly with a 20" barrel.

I love project guns, especially when I can get 'em working again with self-fabricated parts and minimal financial outlay. Good job, and now you can disassemble & reassemble a '97 with your eyes closed!

Wow - great job! You rescued a limping, starving puppy and rehabilitated it into a healthy working best friend!!

CAS shooters are ALWAYS looking for good shooting '97s. I'll bet you could easily sell that gun for 5X what you paid for it at any CAS shoot you visit.
