Chris;

John Boyd was talking with some of the Texas SxS Club colleagues and one of them was up to see Kirk and said that Kirk had someone helping him in his shop and that Kirk was doing well from his amputation. Give Kirk a call and see if he is back into sleeving. The number one problem is getting the barrel blanks today.

Sleeving done in 1996 was likely soft soldered. If Kirk is doing sleeving still than a former soft solder job would make it easier for him. He is the master of soft solder sleeving with no visible lines. The only way you can see one of sleeving sections is too take the barrels out into the bright sunshine and then you can see the slight difference in the blacking.

I do not know if Steve Bertram is doing sleeving.
