I believe Salter listed the (possibly U.S. produced) 3 Iron Crolle barrels 2-3 years ago, with better pics thereof then now and without the Laminated Steel barrels that DO have what appear to be legit Wesson marks By the terrible fit of the crolle barrel's rib extension, possible the Laminated barrels were the original??

If you look closely at all the photos still available on Joe Salter's site you can see similar sets of marks on the underside of both sets of barrels. How the rib extensions got so sadly bunged up is a mystery. Last edited by Steve Meyer; 06/18/11 01:52 PM.
