Buddy of mine bought an older Marlin lever gun in 44, it had a burr in the chamber.
It was actually a groove that ended with a burr by the freebore area.
He got the burr out, but the groove splits the brass.
He's searched the net looking for a new barrel, no luck.
He found a place in Kalamazoo that will sleeve the chamber area for $150. Anyone know of a shop closer to the South Bend area that can do it?
I would send him to Tactical Component, but it's my understanding that John has closed the shop.
