Which barrels is original, which one redone by Breck Gorman

I have a real nice CH 10ga that had it's barrels redone in brown many years ago, I had Breck Gorman redo them Black and white. One of the two is a high condition original and one is the redone set, right or left??? Can you guess which set was redone?? Breck's work is amazing in my opinion.

if i was forced to guess

the ones on the right in the bottom picture are redone

but- its a guess and his work is excellent.

Reggie Bishop 11-18-2019 06:06 PM

Right side. But they are both very nice!

Craig Larter 11-18-2019 06:11 PM

I will wait to reveal the answer after a few more guesses.

Left are original.

Daryl Corona 11-18-2019 06:29 PM

Left. But his work is so good without barrels in hand it's a guess.

Gerald McPherson 11-18-2019 06:31 PM

Left is my first guess. Right is my second guess.

Craig Larter 11-18-2019 06:36 PM

Left are the redone barrels :).

If I buy an otherwise nice original Parker or Fox that has barrels improperly redone or has a very bad area of severe scratching from a fall or worst of all an area of bad pitting I will get them properly refinished. Kinda like if I had a vintage car with rust through a fender I would have it restored. We are fortunate to have such talented craftsmen.

as i said - his work is excellent

Mills Morrison 11-18-2019 07:27 PM

Wow! I was about to guess right as the redone barrels

Randy G Roberts 11-18-2019 07:52 PM

Very nice. I did not opine but if I would have it's entirely possible that I could have been wrong, hint.

Very nice ! Breck redid a set of DH 10 gauge barrels for me back in June/July and relaid the rib on my 4 frame 10 gauge twist barrels . I was quite pleased with both he did for me :cool:

Brian Dudley 11-18-2019 10:07 PM

I would guess, but I have an advantage. ;-)

John Davis 11-19-2019 07:21 PM

Beautiful work

Mark Britton 11-21-2019 09:50 PM

Not a fair question ! Answer you are very blessed to have both.
