I found this old thread about 'bulges.'
The subject gun I am considering purchasing has 3 bulges in the right barrel, according to seller. From the breech - 14", 15 1/2" and 17". The first two are just 'barely' noticeable acc. to seller. The 17" is more pronounced.
The subject gun is a graded gun not only with the barrel issue of bulges but needs wood work as well. Wood can be fixed. Dents can be raised. But will there always be an inherent problem in the bbls if the bulge is repaired?
He does not know bwt nor has the tools to measure. No inspection or return. As-is.
I don't want to waste $ but I do have another set of bbls that could possibly be fitted to subject gun.
Can bulges be fixed and barrels still be considered safe?
