He welded up a split barrel?!?! This is very timely news, I have a Purdey pinfire that I am in the process of restoring. After lifting the rib, I discovered a couple small pits that actually perforated into the bores. If he can weld up a split, welding up a small hole shouldn't be a problem for him. Thank you for posting info about your project.
One question I had about the split barrel project, was there any cleanup of the bore required after welding?
