Asking for opinions on a gun that is for sale on GI.

[QUOTE=edgarspencer;417802]Collectors Firearms has been around a long time, and is a first rate company. I suspect Mike is away at the annual 4 day Colt Collectors Association meeting.


They did send me a message today answering my main question. Barrel wall thickness on left barrel form .022-.030, right .028-.033
They also sent a couple pictures that I asked for.
What is the minimum wall thickness that is considered safe to shoot? (Low pressure shells, of course)

Many will say .025" is the minimum for Damascus if you are uncertain about the load. Personally, I am not concerned if it's over .020" because I know my loads.
