Chuck,

Thank you for the cost breakdown. I was really thinking more along the lines of $2000 for the barrels. I'd say this as a mass produced set of Beretta 68X goes for over $900, and a DT10 (which is still a mass produced gun) goes for over $2,000.

Although I think it would be a really good idea to make the barrels so they fit original guns, I'm not terribly concerned about the gun being perfectly original otherwise. I'm more concerned with solid functioning along with a good "canvas" for engraving.
