Default Shout out to Breck Gorman!

Breck refinished my 8 gauge DH 36" Damascus barrels and I think you will agree they look very very nice. I did the polishing and Breck did his magic. Not a high condition gun, it has some warts and has been touched by many hands through the years. Good solid shooter that looks pretty smart. Sorry about the poor pictures.

Very nice. Evidence of craftsmanship past and present.

Very nice. I have a set of B grade Lefever barrels on the way back. Can not wait to see how they turned out.

The 6 frame 36” barrels alone weighed 11 pounds. I wonder how much the whole gun weighs?
Very solid problem-free barrels.

Yep all packed up for The Rock! I will have the new hulls for you and the others. I will have my 8ga bore gauge if anyone wants to measure their 8.
