The Science Channel will run "How it's Made" at 3:00AM CDT tomorrow
(8/1/01) and the show supposedly has a segment on shotgun making at H&H according to another board. This is a re-run. I have not seen it. Just giving a heads up.

Saw it a couple of weeks ago. It was nice, but they went through the process in a hurry.

I watched it. Interesting to me, was that they said nothing about regulating the barrels. We've discussed this many times and the consensus seems to be that the old "shoot and adjust and shoot again" is not likely done anymore, even on very expensive doubles. The part on making haggis just about made me gaggis. Glad I don't have to eat that stuff.

Hello Jim,

Forgive me if I disagree, you can't put a 10 month shotgun build all on a ten minute film, they didn't show blueing, colour case hardening, and many other construction operations. I do believe they still do regulate the barrels.

Bye the way, proper Haggis is superb, you just have to have it made in Scotland.

Surely no apology necessary, Harry. Your points are good ones.
Just for my information though, do you actually know if and how they do regulate the barrels on expensive guns made now? I mean that as a sincere and polite question, not an argumentative one.
TIA,

P.S. I'm sure haggis must taste better than it looks, being made! Can you mix it with white gravy and serve over biscuits?

Don't get the channel, wish I could have seen it.

By the way, for those who might have the chance some day, this is NOT the correct way to try haggis for the first time:
