Re: 8 Bore "Clobber Pipe"....

Quote:
The problem was they had no stock larger than 1 inch, and the 8 bore requires 1.025 (atleast mine and most of the ones I’ve seen do). They also cut my rims undersized, which allowed the cartridge to set back against the breech under recoil of the other barrel, which is what caused mine to double. Not an experience I wish to duplicate.
I could see that may happen with a non-rebounding hammer gun with the other hammer down.
The brass maker could have hammer forged their blanks to enlarge the base prior to machining. Wouldn't have been difficult.
