Hello All,
I am looking for a 30" barrel with a vent rib. I am trying to put an old model 12 trap gun back together from parts. Prefer full choke. Simon's rib or similar.

Send offers to PM.

Just the barrel or the whole front end?

I need the barrel with receiver extention and possibly the barrel adjustment ring. The rib passes over the extention and must be removed to threat the extention on, so I was hoping to get one already together. There is a complete front end running on Ebay, but it is already up to $300 and still has another day. I'm rebuilding a gifted Model 12. Even completed it wont be worth more than $600.

regards,

Todd

Todd---Sell the parts you have and buy a mdl 12 all orig---Your right---It won't be worth much when your done and parts may not line up right---Had a friend try the same thing and it never worked out-----JMO----SJB

Thanks Guys,
Your exactly right on the cost vs. the return. I already have an original 1973 Y model that is a target smoker. This particular M12 was a gift from an uncle. The uncle bought it around the early 60's from a trap shooter. He hung a wad in the barrel and you can guess the rest. I originally refused to take it, as it should go to one of his sons or a grandson. He told me none of his kids would know what to do with it, which really got to me. I reluctantly agreed to take it.
Although he probably wouldn't care if I parted it out, in good conscious I never will. I'm just trying to get it back to shootable if I can. I would put a round barrel on it, but it has the ramp. In for a penny so in for a pound.

regards,

Todd
