Gunmaker did the only sleeving job I've ever needed. I don't care what he calls the process or the parts involved because he did a fantastic job on my Elsie Specialty. The man knows his craft...Geo

That does look like a good pipe-fitting job Geo. So what is the correct terminology for that forend? I call those things flotation pontoons. If King's Sterlingworth had one of those babies, it never would have sunk to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean during a blizzard.

Now all we need is a new thread to theorize about the cause of that barrel burst, with maybe some metallurgical analysis and photomicrographs of ferrous contamination or scale that somehow becomes manganese sulfide inclusions. I'd suspect an obstruction... possibly caused by the small graffiti artist who was writing things on the inside of the barrel.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Someone please educate me. What exactly is sleeving a monoblock?

Are you talking the entire barrel 26-30+ inches or are you talking the first few inches?

I do make barrels for the old Winchesters, so Im not a complete novice. Just trying to expand my knowledge base.

Respectfully

Mike
