Directly off Middlesex.

Looks like the inside of black pipe. Very porous looking inside those threads.

Most companies state what materials are used for barrels. Especially load data that comes with the gun.

When you experts can post where the barrels are made, who makes them, what steel they are made of, what they are proofed at, what kind of load data comes in the booklet with the gun, how long the breech plug is, etc, then you'll have something. Till then, it's a 'mater stake to anyone with...

That's a walnut stock too guys. Not a bad price for an early model, heavy barrel, walnut stocked hawken.

😂😂 if you want to shoot that junk, go ahead, literally no one is stopping you.

Prepping for the first test with the new Goex black powder! The first test I'll mainly focus on learning about the new powder. How it flows from my powder pod, how well it measures out consistently, powder granulation consistency, fouling in the bore, and of course, accuracy. Once I find a...

Didn't someone on here have a post about am India made shotgun and showed the breech plugs and how he had to replace them all due to how shoddy it was made?

No one knows exactly what they are made of simply due to the fact they are sold as non firing props. It's like buying medicine in the 1800s, you have no clue what you're getting.

What rifle do you have

Support our AMERICAN makers!

Incorrect, they are using Indian work force. All these companies supply them with the machines. Slave labor at it's best. You'll see fancy equipment in a dirt floor street room, pumping out automotive parts, rims, etc. No thanks.

Nothing is the best in India 😆😆 you can watch their primitive machining,especially crankshafts, on YouTube.

If I didn't have one already. I'd be all over it like a fat kid on a cup cake.

These guys telling you 100-150 are giving you a load lol. You won't pick them up for that these days, they are long over. I'll assume the bore is rust/pit free? I can see some rust on the exterior which isn't a huge deal. I'd say $250 to $275 is a fair price for both parties. If you parted...

Not all American made barrels are proofed. Knight/green mountain for example are "usually " magnafluxed for cracks.

Because it's cheap compared to stainless steel. Kind of like cerakote.

It is but just trying to save both the seller and possible buyer the heartache of buying something that was advertised as ss and it ends up not being the case. You can find the info even.on here https://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/threads/silver-eagle.45275/

No sir I'm just trying to help you but no cva sidelock even offered under another name was ever SS. That's why the finish is stained. It's called weatherguard nickel finish.
