Barrel for Brown Bess

[krasnayaznamya]

hello, looking for a replacement barrel for a 2nd Model/Short Land pattern brown bess. I know that Track of the Wolf offers a long land barrel by Colerain, but am looking for a short land.

Thanx in advance for the help on this!!

cut 4" off and you will have a short land barrel :thumbsup: Thats what I do.

So that's the only option, cutting the barrel?

There must be someone out there that sells barrels beside TOTW.

I would recommend that you go directly to Colerain and see if they will supply you with a barrel.

Not all Brown Besses are the same. The barrel on my Japanese Bess is much more slender than the barrel on a Pedersoli. They are not interchangeable. I would suggest sending the old/unserviceable barrel to a maker who can copy it for you.

My 2 cents.

My guess is no two India made barrels are identical.

If you have the original barrel you can ship it to Colerain and they will make up a new one

how much would some thing like that cost?? Having the barell copied, and how long do you think it would take?? For say..... a long land?

Might be something you would want to call Colerain about.
