in addition to the afformentioned stuff above, one of the more important things that you would want to do is to take the forend off of the gun and, while placing the butt pad on your knee/thigh and gripping the gun by the pistol grip, shake the gun side to side. if there is any play in the hinge you will know it. THIS is the way to check hinge play. most of the time you cannot see any damage to a hinge pin, this will tell you for sure. I had my money 1/2 way out of my wallet, on a brand new gun(!), and decided to do this just for incasies. CLUNK CLUNK CLUNK. needles to say my wallet slammed shut quicker than I could tell he salesman no thanks.
