Not to argue ... but he specifically says to clamp the barrels in a vice using 2x4's and an old shot bag. Sounds like "plumber's methods" to me. I don't think blaming the editor for his words holds merit. Maybe you can blame the editor for the title: "Learn how to perform home modifications on your shotgun!" But the words in the body of the article are clearly Mike's. Easy to find out. I too have been to his home, had work done by him, and found him to be very friendly and professional. All it would take is a phone call -- but why bother? Padding a shotgun in a bench vise is a common high end gunsmith technique, as is using a hand reamer.
