brent Report post Posted January 10, 2021 I have an old T. Barker 12 ga that I wouldn't mind selling to get something nicer. These were made from sometime in the 1890's - 1910's in Belgium. It has Damascus barrels, so its limited to shooting black powder loads. Some might say not to shoot it at all. One barrel has a very small dent that does not affect the pattern it throws. To go with it, I have 25 full length brass shells and I can also supply load data. Its pretty simple to load them up, you just pour in the black powder, over shot card, cushion wad, lead shot or bismuth, and over shot card. The only tool you need is a short wooden dowel rod to fit in the shell as a compactor. They have never needed resizing. You can get the cushion wads and cards from Ballistic Products or Dixie Gun works. I will take $300 for the double and shells. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
