Alan In reply to: True - but you could also include "Through Lumps" in that list. There were also some barrel jointing systems that did not employ "welding" at all(i.e brazing/soldering)at all. BSA used a system in which the Chopper lumps were coupled by a vertical dovetail and pinned. This system was also adopted by Winchester on their Model 21 Shotgun. BTW - it's probably a bit misleading in terms of strength to "lump" Monobloc(demi-bloc) barrels in with Dovetail Lumps! Also - a few of "Quiz' questions for the members; 1/ What is another name given to "Shoe Lumps"? 2/ How did "Chopper Lumps" get their name? 3/ Which British maker used the Monobloc system? |
