Well I finally got the gun and for the money I would say it's not a bad deal.
I've seen worse barrels, so I'll shoot it first, if ok I will leave things alone.
I have a like new barrel in the parts bin and I'm tempted to have it installed.
No "Parker Hale" name on it any where I can see but that may not mean anything.
Anyway thank you for all your comments. --- John
