Can they really be legit Remington-Parker unfinished barrels? These are over 4# unstruck. In the description, he's offering 32" barrels for the same price. |
A number of those new barrel sets are out there. I have a few sets here myself in various frame sizes. I even have a 1/2 frame set.
They are legit Meriden barrel sets that are rough and unfitted.
Yes, there are a LOT of things left to be done to them. They do not even have rib extensions on them. And there is no solution for proper rib matting these days on Parker barrels, so though anything can be done, they hardly make sense as a viable option for a spare set of barrels.
It is more realistic that these barrel sets could be put on check-hook lifter hammer guns (from the transition period) and be finished without matting.
