My No 6 has 5 palm barrels and is an ejector. The more I look at this...... Buy the barrels, send the whole package to Mackinson and he'll get it all fitted up, wham....an ejector, two barrel set Ideal, rare as hens teeth. And for $250?? Where are you ever gonna find that again? Well Dustin, rare just might depend on the company you keep: this weekend will find at least three 16 Ideals in one place, two of them No. 5's, one of them a two barrel set. I actually have two 16's with four sets of barrels, but only three fitted up so far. If James ever gets off his rear and gets hold of a 16, I may be persuaded to part with this set in the white. BTW, thanks again for introducing me to these great guns. For you Ideal fans, check out this "Ace of Spades" with exploded views- totally cool. http://www.steniron.com/sotto_la_pelle/index.php?id_product=12&controller=product&id_lang=2

Speaking of barrels with palms, the Ace of Spades Mike linked to has 5 palm barrels. I have heard that they went up to 7 palms but have never seen a set higher than 5. Has anyone else ever come across or seen a pic of 6 or 7 palm barrels?

strange.....I just sent him an email asking if there are other parts for this gun for sale. I'll put you in touch if he responds to me. I'm thinking it's probably because he makes a big point of saying he won't deal with anyone outside of Continental USA and ebay automatically screens me out. Just a guess.

He could detect the Toronto accent in your typing.
Hey, could that 6.5 be centimeter chamber length, or 65 mm?
Thus your 7 would be.....70mm

Damn, they're sold!  I had just asked Wingshooter to buy them for me and now they are gone.

Wingshooter was yanking my chain!!! We are now proud owners of the barrels that are the subject of this thread.

For you Ideal fans, check out this "Ace of Spades" with exploded views- totally cool. http://www.steniron.com/sotto_la_pelle/index.php?id_product=12&controller=product&id_lang=2I was interested in the French gun-part names. Unfortunately the exploded views/site is in Italian (Which I also understand pretty well). I did see a Manufrance Ideal for sale on a French website last month with two barrel sets. I need to open a business with cousins by marriage in St. Etienne to import these guns to L'Amerique.

Argo, I have already brought three over. Easy peasy.
Well, not to begin with but we got it figured out.
