I have an old double that I've only shot a few times and recently noticed that about mid way on the barrels, there is about a 6 inch space underneath the top rib that is somewhat open and I'm assuming that the solder in this section has 'broken' free etc. The rest of the rib is solid, both top rib and bottom. Since I'm only shooting or would only shoot low pressure loads in this double, does it make sense to just shoot it until the rib really gets loose (there's no apparent looseness now) or send it out and have the rib(s) re-laid? Feedback welcome, I'm all ears.
