May I offer the following thoughts??
When questioning the board, a couple of years ago, about a 12 gauge set much like this, I was advised, by most, that a two barrel set was not worth a great premium over a single barrel gun. Seems that most of these second barrels were rarely used.
I took their advice and did not purchase the gun. I greatly regret that decision.
I, also, think that a second set of steel barrels are probably not original to the gun. Seems odd to order both barrel materials at the same time.
Bravely anticipating the wraith of the LC man, I will advise that the stock is more important than a second set of barrels.
The set that I looked at was around $1200 at that time; had two forearms, and the wood had no cracks or bruises
Best,
John.
