Jent: there appears to be a crack in the lump
I just picked up these barrels on the LCSCA site

They are Armor steel, marked '2', and were likely (much later) factory skeet barrels made for a 1901 unknown grade gun. The muzzle of the left barrel might be slightly out of round and it looks like they were dropped with a cosmetic ding on the chamber end of the right barrel. Rib is intact and they ring like a bell and the pin & disc barrel check and extractor are there.
I'd like to help get Thomas' neat gun back in service. Unfortunately that serial number is part of the 'lost' series, so no Research letter would be available, but it likely started as a Live Bird/Trap gun.
If no one else buys the gun, I probably will, but am concerned about the extent of the needed wood repair. If someone buys the gun and wants the barrels contact me at
