Why does it look like it has 2 grooves of rifling?
LOL ... Thats weird it does ! I dont .... Oh ! I bet that is from the wooden dowel I use . I leave it in the barrel most the time to help pop the barrel out , less inlet black on my hands . I must have left some lines in there ...its a smoothbore , 20 ga. Funny , you guys are obviously on computers , you are picking out some small details I can barely make out on a dollar store phone ! LOL ...
 
At the pace I work I will be lucky to build 3 before I am too old to shoot them!
You and me both. So much to know and not a lot of time left. I sure enjoy the build process though. @Rob M. does such a great job. I do plan on several more builds but I would like to own one custom made gun. I wonder who I should contract with for that? ;)
