Chuck: Thanks for the information!

We are having a little discussion over on the 16 gauge forum about barrel construction, alignment, and soldering methods. As much of these discussions become, this one has become more academic than pragmatic.

However, another question I have has to do with how smaller Italian manufacturers make their barrels. Are they using a different process than Miroku? Who supplies the barrels for smaller Italian gun makers?

Also, when barrels are made either via hard-soldering them or soft-soldering them, how many are rejected because they are misaligned?

Thanks,

david
