Barry this is a new barrel. For the breech he is installing a breech plug with a welded hook that will fit the T/C tang. He will also install an under rib with ram rod barrels, cut a dovetail for the front and drill, tap and install the rear sight.
The barrel blank will be bored out to .54 cal and rifled with a 1:66 twist.
