That is an interesting comment. In the spirit of just conversation, why do you suppose those barrels were changed out to Vulcan. Probably a myriad of reasons. Guns are tools that were knocked and banged around and used I am guessing and using Vulcan was just the most economical repair at the time in the evolving faster, better, less expensive industrial process management. Or, was that a conscientious decision to make a change to use modern powder.

I am probably guessing D. All the above. Unless you may know something.
