Recently received my 1895 GH Damascus barrels back from Brad Bachelder for refinishing. Pictures are not the greatest but I think everyone will get the idea of the before and after and the quality of Brad's work. (I am still working on getting that new camera Mr. Cronkite)

Before:

After:

1 1/2 frame; 30" barrel length with perfect bores. Both .731 bore diameter with .039 restriction in each tube.

Did Brad do the wood refinish also?

No, Brad did just the barrels. I acquired the gun with the stock already refinished.

Brad did the barrels on - Serious Cleanup Project- and I couldn't be happier. I also had the trigger guard reblued and the triggers replated. All the work was great and I felt price was fair. Quality of work excellent. Turned an old hammer gun into a prized pocession.

Another happy customer by Brad. David, make sure you share the pictures of that nice 10. I do look forward to seeing them.

Thanks Jent. The turnaround time was two months.
