First of all - I'm in NC. I assume I'll be sending it somewhere, regardless - just always prefer good recommendations before I give it to someone I have no experience with.
As far as the barrels - each one looks different on both side on both the exterior and interior. I have never seen a barrel that has been hammered down, so i can't say. From my experience, it really appears to be old exterior rust pitting. The right barrel has just a couple of spots of rust pitting on the exterior. The interiors - just the random pitting right past the chambers. Otherwise, the bores look pretty good.
Definitely won't be firing until I get an inspection!
