Recommended Posts

Some time ago in the shooting mags there was an article on a new type of sleeving for Damascus barrels wich unlike just inserting new tubes into the old breech ends of the barrels this new method was a way of inserting a new sleeve the entire lenth of the barrel & saving the Damascus pattern ! . But I have heard nothing about it since , I would like to hear from any one who has had this new sleeving done ? or knows a thing or two about it . Pole Star .

I believe that Nigel Teague can sleeve barrels with a liner.

Thanks for that I could not think of the name until you just knocked it out of one of my emty brain chambers ! I hate to see those loverly old damascus patterns gone for ever ! . I saw in the shooting press just recently a new type of Damascus on offer by Purdy I think, its a different pattern to the old type but it has one draw back ! I ain't won the Lotto yet !!!!
