In my own quest for a repair on the old Trojan bulge. I talked to several gunsmiths and was on a couple of online forums including this one. I found that several gunsmiths just wont do bulges and some folks say aw just shoot it the way it is and others think any bulge is inherently unsafe. I am certain that where the bulge is and the level of severity is very important but ultimately I decided there isnt much science or consensus on the problem or the solution. maybe someone needs to do some tests on bulged guns like the guy did for damascus barrels.
Murphy has given a good direction, send the old 32" girl to Keith Kearcher and have him look it over, he will give you straight-up answers on the possibilities of repair...
