I came across this barrel in a barn left to me by my grandfather. I have no idea the model or age. Can anyone help me? I can’t figure out how to post pics on here. It has a p on the face vp or b on the outaide. Please email me and I’ll send pictures.

If you aren’t a Forum Member, you have to use a photo-sharing site like Photobucket. (Yes, a pain.)

But if you see a VP stamp, only Winchester (I think!) used that mark.

Trou,

You can send the pictures to me and I can post them. Take photos of any markings and take measurements of its length and diameter.
