Galazan Repro Barrels Redux

[Wild Skies]

Did you happen to notice the listing and apparent availability for Parker Reproduction and original Parker barrels in the latest CSMC catalog? Only $4800 a set for Repros and just $5500 for the originals! You're on your own to have them fitted.

Where does one get forends?

[Bill Murphy]

I believe that the Galazan .410 barrels for the 00 frame Repros were made to use your 28 gauge forend.

That's a far cry from the $2k 16 ga. barrels they were selling a couple of years ago... why the price jump?

One possibility is that a new Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport sells for a cool $2.35 million and Tony has his eye on one.

I'm sure we all remember that the original advertising called for advance orders only at a certain price, like $1999 or something. No claim was made that the barrels would be available after the initial run, but they "would not be $1999".

Yeah, but.....

Same phenomenon on RBL and Inverness pricing. Reasonable when offered initially, then, through the roof.

Speaking of Tony, can anyone tell me why he is using the hideous toryx screws on his very expensive newish over and under? I don't mind the internal ones as much as the ones holding (my guess) the ejector rods. They just look totally out of place on a beautiful gun.
