Mick,

Don't get all excited. The conversion of the shotgun (not a build) is just being done by the local smith/repair shop. Getting myself an expensive double is just not in the cards.

So far the barrels have been soldered into the sleeves and chambered. It goes off when the trigger (singular!) is pulled. Of course lots more to do: make the quarter rib, extractors, the ribs, set the sights, blue, etc. And all the regulating. It presently weighs about 7.3 lbs. It will probably wind up weighing about 8 1/2 lbs. I was hoping for less.

It will be a single selective trigger w/ejectors. Not a WR but it will be what I want. If I skip a day's visit my position on the priority pole slips. Not holding my breath for completion anytime soon.

Will, are the barrels only soldered into the block, or are they partially threaded as well?
