Just saw one for the first time at the local gun shop, and there is a change in the barrels at the end of the chambers. They almost looked sleeved?
I never saw one before is that a quirk of these guns?
Thanks, CHAZ

Yes- and what feature of this I.J. "work-horse" double is the "Hooded comb"--man, their ad and copy writers must have been doin' some serious doobie at work to come up with that name- You want to see hoods with combs- check out the 1978 movie "Grease" but on a shotgun, huum????

The barrels look just like those in the picture, a little bit of engraving right where they are threaded in. It is marked Iver Johson, Hercules. If I get back down I will try and get a pic or two. CHAZ

That looks exactly like what I saw, although not in that condition. The one for sale in town is "project grade" but all in one piece and functional. It appears to be a little loose on face as I can get a little wiggle side to side. It is priced at $450. CHAZ

"project grade", "loose on face", "$450.00". Run away quick.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

I thought that seemed a little harsh, but I didn't know if they were particularly rare. CHAZ

Yep, I think they are almost double of what it should be if it's a project gun.
