Keith will tell you that the missing extension is a non weight bearing item and need not be there for the gun to be locked up for firing. If anyone can fix up the breech end of your barrels and fill up the void in the top of the action at a reasonable price, Mr. Kearcher can. You are in the best location in the entire country to get your gun operational for less than its value.

Your +8 is actually "4 8" which is the weight of your barrels in pounds and ounces before final finishing. The "T" is the mark for Twist Steel barrels, a composite barrel not bored from a tube of solid steel. A "4-8" set of barrels, if not seriously pitted or damaged, is usually a good candidate for shooting.
