that was my idea as well, but the fireing pin distance matches the barrels center, so it is hard to do anything else. and i found a lot of the dbl rifles in the lower ends are made on 12 gauge size actions.

i found on the few that i had the pleasure to measure, if firing pin size fits, then outside barrel diameter roughly fits as well.

actually thats why i like holts, a lot of different guns to compare and measure. im not sure if the barrels will fit into any of these actions. but i was told that this would be my best bet, if any.

im really interrested to see if this a&d idea has something to it.

funny thing though, the purdy has small pins, and the henry atkin has bushed small pins.

best regards
