I will get some more pictures up soon. They will show the iffy condition of the barrel. When you're the buyer, it is called "patina", when you are selling it is called rust... A nice rebrown would be nice The bore has a very rough spot in it but it seems to be smoothing out as I work it. Just patches so far since most of my stuff is boxed for the move. I think I need to maybe use some Wipe Out and give it a really good soak and scrub with a bronze brush. The wood I am not going to mess with.
