Just got an email from Turnbulls, apparently they are moving and some inventory of restored guns is on sale.

I took a quick look at the shotguns, I see a Parker 12 GHE a 16 CHE, a two gun set of Fox 12 CE's, a Fox 20 XE, an LC. Smith 12Ideal and a E.M. Reilly 12.

All the guns have 2-3/4" chambers listed which leads me to ask does Turnbull lengthen chambers to 2-3/4 as a matter of course? There was an Ithaca "Restoration" gunsmith a few years ago that stated any gun sent to him for any work would be opened up "to prevent liabilities", is Turnbull doing the same?


My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.
