barrels and frame size

[HERSH]

what barrels wii fit a 12 gauge #1 frame or must barrel frame # match frame #

[OH Osthaus]

they need to match

1/2 frame barrels will fit a #1 frame gun, if you can find a set. Good luck with that.

Thanks Bill so will a 1 1/2 barrel work on a number one frame or does it have to be 1/2

Don't waste your time looking for a 1/2 frame set of barrels. They are far and few between. 1 frame barrels on a 1 frame receiver, 1 1/2 frame barrels on a 1 1/2 frame receiver and so on and so on.

thanks double lab

Instead of confusing the OP with the 1/2 frame oddity, lets just stick to the guidline that the frame size has to be matched when looking for compatible barrel sets.

For the number 1 frame size, you could go with 12g, 16g or even 20g. 12g and 16g would be most commonly found. 20g would be rare.

Does anybody have an opinion on lining Damascus barrels?
