Re: Tightening a SXS shotgun

The barrels are blacked down, the forearm hagger refitted and the rear of the hooks where they rub on the forward end of the locking bar touched up to keep it from binding.

The job came out GREAT. Finished up with about 75-80% contact on the faces with the left side of the lever tip stopping just to the right of the centerline of the tang.

Should last another 100 years.

Took me about 5 hours to get the barrels down and all the other things trimmed up, a little long but not bad for my first go round. I'm very pleased with the results.
