Gun came in today, barrels are huge and Damascus 3 Crolle. Never seen barrels measure roughly .170 at end of forcing cone and .081 at 10 from breach . But these are the first Damascus I have ever measured or owned. Very few shallow pits, bore .731 chamber 2 5/8, 30 long chokes .024/.034.
Wood is really nice, even but plate original, 3 screws a little buggered, not bad for 121-122 years old.
I do have 5 boxes of some 1 1/8 Italian made Navy arms black powder 2 5/8 7 1/2s I bought for 5.00 a box 30 years ago
Do these measurements sound like original?
Need barrels refinished, who is the guy to get the black/white ( or dark grey/ light grey) look?
