Need 8 3/8"bbl for model 57

[wallacem]

I have a model 57 with a 8 3/8"bbl, blue gun, bought it about 15 years ago, used, and it had been messed up. some idiot had drilled holes in the top of the bbl for a scope mount. He drilled the first set crooked, then went next to those crooked holes and drilled more. I guess the second set worked. the gun is great,but unsightly when you look at the top of the barrel. I think I want to look into changing barrels. i have never had this done, so i don't know whether we are talking a lot of money or not. Any suggestions would be welcome, and if you have an extra barrel for this gun please let me know, Wallacem in Ga

Try numerich for a barrel. "The Gunsmith" in Phx Az does great work on Smiths. Guy's name is Nelson and you can find him in the yellow pages. Good luck
