Shooter GH?
I was in the market for a user gun and came across a 1891 GH Damascus 12 Ga on a #1 frame for what I feel was a can't get hurt too much price. The barrels have been cut from 28" to 26 1/2" which is fine with me because I want to use if for grouse here in Northern Mi.
From what I can tell the gun is pretty well unmolested with the exception of the cut barrels. My question is, is it reasonable to send the barrels out to have inspected as to their shootability? There are several dents but I can't believe that someone just "hung it up" and called it quits. Also, the barrels don't ring so well. Would this affect shootablility? All of you guys with Damascus barrels, are they perfect and dent free?
Thanks
Ryan
