drew: i am sure you have reasons for publishing your picture. if they are positive, perhaps you could elaborate...however, if they are negative, then perhaps you should consider carefully, before heading down that slippery slope?

joe: not sure these days, but somewhere around $1000. i know he ran out of barrel blanks recently and bought a fresh batch of blanks for an english source. as barrel blanks are the major material cost for a sleeving job, that may have caused his finished price to go up? anyway, i know ed's barrel work. like all other gun work that he does, it is above all safe. secondly, he will regulate the barrels to whatever distance you would like for the shot charges to converge. one gun that comes to mind that he sleeved is a parker ph 12 bore. it's new owner was amazed that it put one pattern right on top of the other at 30 yards!

if you want cosmetic perfection, with no seams showing, then ed is not the smith for you. i understand that there are other smiths who do fine cosmetic work with no seams showing. however, i understand they charge around $2000 for a finished job.

SLE ST 12ga Delivered 1902

Sleeved by Kirk in 1998

Used hard since, though I always thought the blacking was thin.

12ga Trigger plate action delivered 1880

Original 30" Damascus tubes were trashed

Sleeved by Kirk in 2000

Still in the white, maybe this winter I'll get to finishing them cool

Here you go, Mike





Let me know if there's something in particular you need a photo of. I shot it for first time (long, strange trip, it's been) this fall- 300 shells, it needs more cast off.
