Mark: were the barrels sleeved (tubes replaced) or lined?

And a noble job well done by both you and Brad!

How does it balance now and what is its weight?

Drew -

Nice Catch! They were lined (I edited my post)- Original barrels with an Approximately 8 inch liner inserted and welded at breech. Now accepting 28 gauge shells!

Dean -

Weight and balance are virtually the same- I have a digital package scale here at work and it showed an additional 4 oz. I could not perceive any difference when I lift it. And I did not note any change with the finger under the receiver balancing maneuver.

It sure comes up nice for me. I expect I will again be able to shoot it well - keeping in mind it has been 10 years since I shot it last. We'll see
