I've got my father-in-law's Crescent Arms New Empire double-barrel .410 which is missing it's forend assembly. Does anybody know where I might be able to find one? Would definitely consider buying a whole gun if the price was low enough. Wood condition is not important, we just need all of the pieces.

Thanks

$950? I understand that it is an old shotgun in good condition, but, uh, almost a grand for a Crescent? Is there something I'm missing? Maybe I'll talk FIL into selling this one to him for parts.:rolleyes: I've seen other model Crescent doubles on Gunbroker for around $250 and I thought that was fairly high.


Checked Numrich's, they don't have it.

Enjoy!
