- The Davis SpeedFeed stock doesn't look to have room in it for any of the
- off-the-shelf recoil dampers. I'm considering constructing one myself.

- much mercury?" Half full? 3/4? 1/4? Anyone know?

- I want to install a ghostring sight on the 870's receiver. Is this a job

- tapping two holes. I _may_ have access to a drill press, but nothing
- fancier.

- area?
