I believe they all were sold as complete guns, but i'm sure some had the bbls removed and sold seperately. I'd bet that most of the guns sold, started out with shotgun bbls on them. I'd also bet, that every action you find, has a set of bbls. "somewhere" with a matching ser. number. (Now that i said that, i supose someone will have an action that didn't come with bbls... lol)

Lots of bbls were sold without an action, but i don't believe there were many if any actions that came from the factory without bbls...
