I just saw that there is going to be a pair of 28 barrels for sale in Pennsylvania Furnace,Pa. tomorrow. Check out the double gun BBS for more info.Wonder how close that is to Maryland?

It's about 135 plus miles from Frederick as I recall from my mapquest inquiry. I guess someone should call about the markings, length, and serial number. I can't go and won't buy barrels I can't see.

David ;I have been wondering the same thing, I was only 100 miles away and would have gone but I was already committed to a local auction with a friend who wanted to buy the Model 71 Deluxe ,when we got there we couldn't believe the gun was drilled and wasn't in much better than 50 percent condition ,he passed on it any way ,was too late to head out by that time ,sure would have liked to had them if they were in good shape ,who knows ,may still show up on e bay !

I talked to the auction on Friday and was told the guns had been in a fire and only there barrels were salvageable. They were packed up so I could not get ser # or pictures. Sure would have loved to have gotten them but SC is a long ways away.

David ,I have a little 20 bore ,G grade ,with a mismatched serial #'ed set of Vulcan barrels ,they are Ok to shoot but have some pitting issues , If these were O Frame 28's ,wouldn't that have been a stroke of luck ,my buddy would have gladly changed auctions but the rest of my day was booked ,just too many reasons I couldn't make it ! Would have gone if I would have stumbled across it sooner !
