    Dents in barrel ?

    This Inland 611543 with Inland 8-43 barrel I bought was just delivered. I just noticed a couple of dents on the outside of the barrel. The bore looks shiny and unobstructed. Just wondering if there might be some safety issues. Cosmetically it's no big deal since I'm having it reparked and a Type 3 band installed.

    Was it done with a hack saw when the type 3 band was cut down?

    That's what it looks like. Hack saw or file. I wouldn't worry about it.
