Cutting Barrels On Vintage U.K. Built DR's
25/03/07 12:04 PM

If you have bought a vintage U.K. built DR in an elephant

caliber, and you've decided that the 28 inch barrels are

too long for your liking, and you choose to have them

cut to 26 or 24 inches by a smith with very strong

credetials and a reputation to match, and the work turns

out so well that the rifle could be taken by most as if the

shorter barrel length is NOT a modern alteration but truly

original to the rifle, have you hurt the resale potential

in the rifle when you reveal that you've had the barrels

shortened? [Whew... long question...!]
