I was bidding against another PGCA member (unknowingly, but not surprising) who got the info from Chuck. The Seller contacted me to say he had cancelled the auction, that they were, as I suspected, 16 gauge, and cut down.

I learned the information from a bidder (PGCA Member) who contacted the seller with specific questions.

When people make the decision to chop their barrels, why can't they cut them a little over, instead of a little under?
