I shoot twist and damascus guns with both black and smokeless reloads and my uncle shot one with factory nitro loads even thou they would have been lower pressure 10ga. Need to buy a barrel thickness gauge.ĭrew, like reading your posts. I was only off 13 years!! Need to look at it with the magnifier. Not knowing anything about Greeners I thought around 1890, but didn't tell him. The "Not for Ball" was a red flag for me, but didn't tell him, also no nitro proof. He thought fluid steel, but I'm now thinking laminated. At least they didn't buff the name on barrel, engraving or locks. He thought rust frosting, but he was seeing shadow from the dents. The barrels are thin in the front 1/3 and I can see the dents on the inside of the barrels that where there when he bought it. Don't think replacement barrel and it's not sleeved. I remember him duck/goose hunting with it when I was a teenager, but didn't pay any atention to it back then. Just saw the gun last night when visiting him.

Skeettx, thanks for the offer to post pic, but don't have any.
