Interesting Toradar Barrel

Steve,

Somewhere in your first sentence above, there is a Tee shirt slogan!

Not sure on the why's and wherefores of the 3 gun limit, but it may be into the US things work differently.
If you need a name of a lassie who handles such transactions, drop me a line.

I had mine shipped into the US as well, then up here by road, as Canada will only allow "Firearms" (and that is Any form of gun, no matter how old,) to come into the country via Air Canada, and there is a very stiff lock-up price for this service.

By surface mail, we have greater lee-way as long as not in a rush!

Looking at your stock it appears to have broken just in front of the normal join. (Not All are so joined, but a majority I'd say) It looks a very fine and strong barrel, and the break looks clean, even if sadly fresh. It looks like it should repair without much bother I'd say.

We do see many more of these interestig arms in the UK than over here. again, rather sadly!

I missed a rather unusual one a while back. Will put up a photo if I still have it.

I am a bit surprised Rick has not joined in. I will see if I can dig him up!

All best,

Richard.

Edited to say, that on looking at the one above, It is nearly positive to have come from Jaipur /Amber. It has all the hallmarks, and is a lovely piece!

Richard,
The Shipping company will ship up to three guns for the same price as the one. I guess British law requires a gun dealer to ship by air. I think the US only needs it shipped thru an import center This barrel and others are coming DHL out of India just fine. oh I sent an EMail thru forum Steve
