Rick, The "Plain Twist" barrels and stock are from a #3 frame,1887 10ga, top lever hammer gun. Unstruck weight of 6lbs, thinnest spot I can find in the tubes measures .o52, It's a nice heavy gun just shy of 10lbs.

Being in agreement with all the above advice, I would suggest anyone wanting to try steaming dents, should grab a piece of scrap wood, knock a few dents of varying size in it and have at it. Great way to learn.
