I have done enough attempted barrel fitting to know that I don't want to do it when I want near a near perfect outcome. And, that is the only kind of fitting job I would be satisfied with. There are many gunsmithing jobs I have learned to do, and enjoy. I may try again, but the truth is I'm not willing at this point to risk messing up a nice set, to learn by mistakes, and I'm not willing to invest the time necessary to teach myself on a "scrap" gun and barrels set that won't be used afterwards. I know that is a proper way to learn, but I'm just not there yet.
I would pay well, or be willing to barter anything reasonable, to sit under a master barrel fitter and be taught, without having to figure it all out for myself and make all the usual mistakes. Or, maybe I'm just lazy.
