prices are quoted at the top of the page. I have my first shipment out right now and will have a better idea of round trip shipping prices when it returns.

It's not the price of the work that's so painful, it's the price of getting the gun shipped back. A friend sent them one recently and it cost him just short of $900 from Teague to the US.

Hopefully Teague will license someone in the USA to do the work here. I'd like to see other gauges done like the 10ga. I could have bought a nice WC Scott monte carlo for about $1100 some years ago that had a horrible hone job to remove pits. The barrels were a series of forcing cones and chokes from chamber to muzzle. This could have corrected that.

we are working on more gauges. Jon is looking at 20 ga next. The problem is not licensing, the problem is funding. Jon's hone cost several times as much as my home. I am hopeful that by sending several guns at a time and with the currently favorable exchange rate shipping will be cost effective. It is certainly more affordable now than it has been in several years.

Why is the Teague system such "rocket science" when every corner gunsmith and some not neccesarily located on corners can enlarge a shotgun bore to specified dimensions? Briley does other types of insert tube. Why can't they do the Teague style? I suspect Briley is just too busy with other projects and has the Teague system on the back burner. I don't object to Teague having a monopoly on this method, I just can't figure out why.

Bill....look at the hone pictured in my webpage....cost is around 500K.....Jon takes the original barrels out to as little as .005" in thickness, about 2 pieces of note book paper. It is not rocker science, but it is VERY precise machining which requires significant investment. As the barrel walls become thinner, problems become exponential, it is easy when you have .025" of wall to work with. Try the same methods with .008" and you have big problems.

DLH The Royal Mail must be a very profitable business and in this economic climate they want to keep it that way. Send a gun to Britain, insured, for about $100, $900 to get it back? Costs more if you call it "Carriage".
