I had a stock lined up, but it is for a 1 frame.

If the barrels are sound, it would be an expensive, but worthwhile project. I would have a new stock made, if it were mine.

some fair looking stock blanks come on ebay from time to time...and even complete stocks also...i look forward to seeing this gun completed...charlie

This is definitely a project that will take lots of time and money. I doubt the investment will ever be recovered but thats not what it's about anyway. Good luck with it Harold.

Absolutely right Rich. But I am looking into it, just to see if it is possible/feasible. I first need to find out if the barrels are safe/shootable, and if the barrels can be fitted to the action. Then of course, I need a stock.
If the gun can be put back into shape, and I like it, will see about refinishing the barrels etc.
Was at Brett Hoops house yesterday, and the wall thickness seemed to be OK on his gage. May try a little more barrel clean-up tonight with a frontier pad .
Because of the extensive barrel and fitting to the action, I talked to Dave Fjeline, and will send it out to him this week, and will have some answers then.
Been meaning to call you, will try this week .

Why doesn’t TPS list any 16ga. plain twist grade 0 barrels of the more than dozen guns with lengths of 34” and 36”

I wondered about that myself Edgar, don't know how many of these 34" 16's were made, maybe only about a dozen. Shipped it out to Dave Fjelline today

Dave can work miracles. He's worked a few for me

Dissapointed, but not surprised , with the opinion on the 34" gun. Dave Fjelline checked it out, and pronounced it terminal. It was in rough shape, and he deemed it not feasible to repair, and Dave loves hammer guns, the longer the barrels, the better.
I knew when I had it sent to me that I was taking a gamble-and I lost the bet .
Sure did get the old juices flowing, thinking about a 34" 16 ga.:crying:

That is disappointing, but it happens. I have lost some bets too
