Snap caps in the gauges you are interested in buying, and a wooden dowell 3/4" dia and a bungee cord looped, to suspend the barrels and "ring them"-- Any dealer who will not allow me to use the snap caps to test firing pins, sears, safety set and timed ejection will NOT get my money, nor will one who won't allow the barrels to be "rung" and scoped for rivelling, and checked with bore gauges (Hosford's) for wall thinness, will also NOT get into my wallet. shortencaution is a watchword, the gun trading world is full of crooks--RWTF
