I am looking for a replacement take down barrel in 38-55 for my early 1900’s rifle. Prefer either an octagonal or 1/2 octagonal 1/2 round.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

If your lucky enough to find one on gunbroker or other auction sites that may be the only place to find an original. I used to see them come up for auction but they were few and far between. You might consider having someone make one.

If Buckingham doesn’t have any, try these guys: https://www.winchesterbarrels.com/winchester-barrels-available.html
Their barrels are newly manufactured but look like originals. OK if you want a good shooter.
