Well, in quicker time than I expected I got the sleeved barrels back from Merrington. I asked them to come back struck and in the white with solder joints cleaned up so that I could have engraving done and blue them here.

I used a Trojan top rib so that it would be Fluid steel. The matting and makers mark will be all removed so the end product will be a smooth rib.

Chambers are 3" and chokes are Mod/Mod.

Going to be a slick looking gun. Come on out when you get her finished and we'll do a little work over in Canada.

Brian. Before you blue what do you use to clean up the old blueing that is down in the rib matting. Sanding removes the matting along with all the patina.

Brian, this is the best form of advertising and it's educational as well. Keep on demonstrating your work and artistry this way! Much appreciated.
