And the GHE 16 with 32" Vulcan barrel for 2.75k plus extras .

The BH had Austrian made 20ga barrels and the original 16ga damascus barrels needed to be refit to the gun?

The GHE 16 would have been a good deal if the barrels had been the original damascus 32's and it didn't have the jagged cracks in the wrist.

I put bids on all three of these guns (plus 15 others) but at about 60% of the prices realized.

I just can't figure if the incorrect guns are really worth that now or if the winners just didn't know the difference.

There are no 'extras' if bidding in the room, left bid, or phone bid with the house.

When Just rebarreled the gun, a new joint role was installed, so refitting the original barrels is the same as hook work after a new role joint. The added barrels don't make it any different.

Having a lengthly, hands on look, probably helps in 'knowing the difference'.
