amishboy Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 barrell converters, 12 Bore to .410 and 12 Bore to 20 bore. I am in cancer recovery at the moment and really don't want to be lugging 2 guns around so barrell converters seem a great alternative as you can simply pop one in you skeet jacket or your gun slips choke pocket. Any tips on where to get them and approx how much? Sincerely Lawson PS I realise it is illeagal to use a converter for rimfire without a FC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amishboy Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 An old friend who emigrated has ordered a a pair of 12 to .410 and a 12 to 20. They are hand made/machine ground as the manufacturerer feels they have a better fit. No tax as he will send them via private mail as a gift. Apparently they take a week to finish due to his back orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean 12-20 , it would be a job to fit a 12 gauge cartridge in a 20 gauge gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
