All good things apparently DO come to those who wait! Great story.

Maynards must have been one of the very first cartridge shotguns in this country; I remember firing a combo set that had been made by adding a 20 guage barrel to a Civil War cavalry carbine. As I recall, it was a factory barrel, probably postwar, but still an outside primed shell like the carbine's. Worked just fine; even patterned pretty well. 26" cylinder bore.
