Hmmm, they should measure their barrel, the current crop of BCs have 32" barrels, not 30"......and the WGRS sight isn't a target sight, either....I just bought a BC barrel from H&R for $108 fitted and shipped with the discount price list!!!

Did you read the part in the description that said it could be fitted to a 10 gauge frame.

No, I didn't....I don't think that's true, is it??? Accordng to the H&R barrel page, only 10ga barrels can be fitted to 10ga frames....

as far as i know the only barrels that can be fitted to 10 gauge frames are the 10 guage accessory barrels.

I sent the seller a PM cause he could get himself in a bit of trouble with the 10ga part.

Also mentioned the other discrepancies in his listing, let's see what he does with it. There is no bids on it yet so he can change his listing if he has any consience.

It appears that the e-bay ad has been updated. Quickdtoo, the price on e-bay includes sights, the accessary barrel price does not. ( I think ) I am thinking of sending a frame off for the BC barrel. How do you like yours?

Love the BC, have one rechambered in 45-120 with the Williams FP target sight on it, it's a hoot to shoot, also have the 45-70 barrel, it has a 10x40 Bushnell Elite 3200 Mildot on it, gonna put my custom walnut Gunstocks Inc stock set on it and use it for long range shooting!! There are a bunch of BC shooters here, some shoot black powder in em, other shoot smokeless, no matter what ya shoot in one, it'll be a bunch of fun!!

That's true about the sights, and if that ebay barrel goes for less than $175, I'll be surprised! The front and rear sights are about $25 each if you buy from the right place. The Williams FP target sight is $60-$70.

The seller replied to my email. He said he mentioned the 10ga cause it fit his. I let him know NEF will NOT fit a rifle barrel to the 10ga frames and also about the other errors. Looks like he stopped his listing, not sure why he did that.
