The shotgun was in 3 pieces when I received it. Just need to make it whole so it can be displayed on a wall. I would not even use this to hit someone over the head. The barrel might crack or bend.  kind of like the stuff produced in China today
I have not been hunting in many, many years.

Mike, OK point made, but really most things are not trash that are made in China, most all of the highend clothing and luggage people have their products made here as do most of the electronic items that get purchased, I phones come to mind, just made down the road from me.. Also, anyone who can send a multi stage rocket into outa space has got some good technology.
The products that come outa the factories I have built during the last twenty years are all ISO compliant, sell world class products globally and are very, very, profitabe. natch, I taught em how to make things right the first time
I am sorry to hear that you have not been hunting in many years. Cobra and guns, wa, what a life, well and errr, hmmm, also a lot of "wimmin" in between
