Michael, I have a '94 short rifle barrel and fore end in .30-30. Unfortunately, it also looks like a perfect bore, but it you want to make a short .38-55, this would be an place to start. If you want a longer barrel, you already have the pieces.

I had Rheto Buehler replace this barrel with one by Niedner, Dowagiac, and then liked it well enough to have him make new wood, too. It is now a companion to the '73 Steven built about 15 years ago.
