Thanks for the great info. I took the gun to a smith today and he said it was definitely not shootable. I looked at the Briley tubes and I'm just amazed at how those work. I'd never heard about this method before.
But I guess my real question is whether the gun will be more valuable to a collector with the tube inserts or just as a wall hanger or parts gun. I'm just want to sell it to someone who will get some enjoyment out of it.
Thanks for any further advise.
Mike
