Default The Beauty of Damascuss

I just got these two sets of barrels back from Dale Edmonds and couldn't be happier with how they turned out. Both are 16ga 0 frame, one set is for a GH and are 32 inches, the other set is for a grade 2 top lever hammergun and are 30 inches in length.
Like fingerprints no two are the same.

I like the 'barber pole' effect of the top set. Dale does nice work. I've had a few sets done by Dale and have always been very happy with the result.

Dale is first class for sure. He just did some for me and has another set right now.

He had them less than 6mos. I don't know what your referring to regarding the coating.

Some coat the barrels after refinishing, with something like Lin-Speed or boiled linseed oil. There is an English product some swear by.
Show us the Grade 2 TL.

Here are some pics of the rest of the gun. The wood isn't anything to talk about but it does have a ball grip and the receiver isn't as nice as the gun I sold to Edgar but it is what it is.
