Wall Thickness Gauge

[Mtntopjack]

What Dean said. I bought a Hosford gauge some months ago, mostly to make sure the guns I own are all safe to shoot. I anticipate using it any time I decide to buy a vintage gun, even taking it to gun shows. The Hosford gauge is very easy to use after getting used to the technique, and is not battery operated. There's other gauges out there, but the Hosford can certainly be considered one of the better ones. Pricey? Yes. But sometimes you just bite the bullet and go the extra mile for any number of your own reasons. Good luck.

Henry gauge that I will have in Vegas





The barrels are secured to a weighted box (in which I carry the gauge and a bore gauge) with bungie cords



I affixed a tape measure so the rule is not needed
