Who Wants a Project Barrel?

The .54 caliber Thompson Center barrel in the pictures below was on a gun I bought cheap years ago because I needed a stock for one of my Green Mountain barrels. It's been sitting in my closet ever since awaiting a project I'll never get around to. So it's available to the first "I'll take it".

It was drilled and tapped for a scope mount. Those holes are no deeper than the holes for the factory sight, so it could safely be re-bored to .58. It may even be salvageable as a .54. Though It's pitted it may clean up reasonably well (the pictures make it look worse than it is). I have not tried polishing the bore - only ran a very oily patch down the bore when I first got it to stop any additional rust. It has the under rib, but no sights or ram rod thimbles.

This "project barrel" is yours for the cost of shipping if you want it.
