Sarco No 1 barrel report

[P246]

Sarco recently listed just found No 1 barrels for sale. 1 for 124.00 or 3 to 99 for 99.00 bucks a piece. No pics not much of a description so I bought 1. It arrived in cosmoline. Barrel with sight bases only. Marks indicate it's a post independence Ishy. Has a J J stamped on it so maybe they are a stash of John Jovino barrels although usually they have been stamped JJ Co. the finish looks good and the threads are finished and it doesn't look like a take off. I'll punch the bore tomorrow and see how it looks. Using a pin set the muzzle looks to be new spec. Since No 1 barrels are getting hard to find I thought I'd share. I was hoping for a Lithgow for a 1915 I have with a heavily pitted barrel. Yeah I know buy a lottery ticket.
