They currently are in the hands of our mutual friend, Mike. According to him, good wall thickness, appear to be original short barrels (25.5") with mod and full chokes, untouched. In need of some TLC. Am searching France for a suitable ejector forend (or just the iron). By the time I get that, the barrels will have made their way up here and then it will be a matter of fitting it all together. I am hopeful it will go smoothly but preparing for it to not.

New ways to spend money! As I said to Mike, the real benefit of buying these barrels is now I need to go out and find a proper case to hold the gun and both barrels, after dropping $500 to get the original case repaired/restored. Doh!


The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia
