Which barrels is original, which one redone by Breck Gorman

[Craig Larter]

I have a real nice CH 10ga that had it's barrels redone in brown many years ago, I had Breck Gorman redo them Black and white. One of the two is a high condition original and one is the redone set, right or left??? Can you guess which set was redone?? Breck's work is amazing in my opinion.

if i was forced to guess

the ones on the right in the bottom picture are redone

but- its a guess and his work is excellent.

[Reggie B]

Right side. But they are both very nice!

[Craig Larter]

I will wait to reveal the answer after a few more guesses.

[Jeff K.]

Left are original.

[Double Lab]

Left. But his work is so good without barrels in hand it's a guess.

[Gerald McPherson]

Left is my first guess. Right is my second guess.

[Craig Larter]

Left are the redone barrels .

If I buy an otherwise nice original Parker or Fox that has barrels improperly redone or has a very bad area of severe scratching from a fall or worst of all an area of bad pitting I will get them properly refinished. Kinda like if I had a vintage car with rust through a fender I would have it restored. We are fortunate to have such talented craftsmen.

as i said - his work is excellent
