Odd little barrel

Ed · 17th July 2024, 04:52 PM

The bore at the muzzle looks a bit flared, I do not think that that profile extends more than 1/2 inch.

The "rifling" looks like some sort of scoring. It, too, is restriceted to the mussze area.

Thing is that I had thought of this barrel as part of a handgun rather than a model. That possibility just occurred to me!!!

Talk about the danger of preconceptions.

I wonder what sort of carriage it had?
