winchester 21 20 guage barrels

[tmmays]

Hey guys. I am interested in purchasing a set of original 20 guage barrels.
Anybody interested?

They are about as rare as hen's teeth. You also must specify whether for a Vent Rib gun or normal rib gun as the receiver heights are different.
CSMC can make and fit a set of barrels to your gun at a price. Good luck! -Dick

Dick:
I need matted rib barrels. I know Galazan can make the barrels but they will not engrave Winchester like the original. Have you seen any of their barrels?

Thanks for the forum. I have several 21's. Are you still compiling a database?

Galazan barrels are as good as any Winchester Model 21 and so are thier guns. You will have to send the entire gun for fitting to Galazan and other than the cost you should be satisfied.
Olin still holds the rights to the Winchester name and you would have to pay Olin a license feee for the 'Winchester' name. Evidently that fee is quite high as Tony has only produced Winchester marked Model 21's from NOS and a few licensed by Olin in the early 1990's. Model 21's without the Winchester name are free.
Yes, I would still want to collect information for the database and when I get a few more, will compile a table.
As regard's the forum, your welcome.-Dick
