Another show,another gun.

Have to make another phone call or 2 and can contact the guy I got it from.He was very nice to deal with.Maybe can trace it back a ways if interested.Ive got another gun I find real interesting,I posted on here a couple years ago,It's a Vgrade 36 inch that's had everything swapped out but the safety.The guy I bought it from claimed to have bought it from an original decendan of original owner of the gun who only lived 10 miles from me,but he will not tell me who it was.He told me he frequents a local gun show that I probably know 1/3 of the vendors.I might even know the guy.Frustrating.

Wouldn't be neat to find the original barrels.

Looks like I have some reading to do,Thanks Dave for the info.The gun weighs 8 lb 2 oz. and the 32 in barrels weigh 4 lbs even by my scale.You could tell the weight of the original barrels by the gun weight listed?Or is it on the card?

The Fox book by McIntosh has some tables in it that tell the barrel weights of the various gauges, number weights (#1, #2, ect.) and the lengths; pages 152-154.
