Under no circumstances should you lengthen the chambers. There are plenty of options for short low pressure loads suitable for the the gun, as is.

Send in for a letter, it might tell you some interesting facts about the gun. It's cheaper to become a member of the PGCA and get the letter then a non-member, plus you get the Parker Pages quarterly and be able to see the members only forums which include Buy and Sell ads

Thanks guys it is very nice that is what prompted me to buy it I was really looking for a non Damascus gun but came across this one I will not lengthen the chambers as far as the whole Damascus thing I’m not going to get to involved in that conversation /safety / strength/ lever sits well to the right no dents no corrosion. A very rare find in Saskatoon Canada . The only issue is finding the correct ammo in this country is not that easy . Thanks for your input

Damascus 20 gauge guns are fairly scarce, and in unmolested original condition, even more so. You're a fortunate man to find a good one.
A friend sent me a lovely straight stocked GH20, but the horrendous pitting in the bores, in the critical high pressure areas, scared me off. I heard that a well known shop bought it and deemed it safe |

As mentioned I was absolutely amazed at the condition of the over all gun bores are brite not even a trace of pitting or even discolouration. If it showed any issues what so ever I would have passed on it

The latest hammerless damascus barrels are SN 220,657 GH D3 1927, SN 222,845 DHE D4 1927, and SN 227,020 VHE D3 1928. I don't know the gauges though and maybe someone would kindly check the book.
Don: the case colors should be as bright as the bores. If the colors are faded or worn, the barrels may have been honed.

Welcome Don! Please post some pictures when you can. Sounds like a very nice gun. I have a GH 20 Damascus, but mine is much earlier.
You should join PGCA as well |
