    Does your chamber look like mine?

    I'm trying to determine if mine is sleeved or if it was re-barreled. I don't know what to look for. The dates on the barrel could be when it was reworked.

    I guess. The area where the sleeve ends is all I could find and thats well out of focus on your photo. And it was hard to find even with the bore scope! Would think it likely yours is sleeved as well. But it ought not hurt anything.

    As far as the outside goes, here's a couple old photos:
