Default They're Back

Received my Bernard barrels back from Breck Gorman , in the same indestructible packaging I sent them in, a couple of days ago and they are magnificent!

They were completely silver when I sent them... I mean there was absolutely no contrast whatever and you really had to look to see that they were actually Bernard Steel... the inscription on the rib confirmed it though.

Thanks Breck for the awesome job you did on these barrels! This 'project gun' is getting closer and closer to completion.

The finish looks fantastic, but then Breck does great work!

I removed them before I sent the barrels.... long before I even decided on Breck Gorman to refinish the barrels.

Impressive for sure. Always nice when gun work turns out that well. Some of these fellas do amazing work. That's a fast turnaround also as I recall ?
