    Now that's it, a barrel is a tube with splines cut in the bore, what you do with it is up to you, good for watering the garden. If you asked me to make a action for you ,"NO WAY", I only make rifles for my own use and are proof tested, I gave my Sharps rifle a good test shooting with a hot load that would make a Ruger #1 sit up and take notice!!. So there`s no numbers or stamps on it. It`s ok to mill on a lathe, BUT, only light cuts, not like someone with a 2.200kg monster .
