I purchased a model 1894 shipped in 1900 that originally came with a 1/2 octagonal barrel in 25-35.
At some point in it's life the barrel was changed to a newer 25-35 round barrel.
I am trying to track down a 1/2 octagonal 25-35 barrel for it.
Does anyone have any advice where I should look or know anyone that might have one?
Any help would be very much appreciated in putting this gun back to original configuration.
Thanks

I looked there but they have no barrels at all for the 1894.
Any other ideas out there?

I have purchased many older gun parts from Homestead. Did not see the barrel you need listed. There are times they have a lead to parts not listed.

Thanks for the info.
I've been watching Ebay, Numrich, Armslist and Homestead.
Looks like a hard one to find but I'll keep trying because I really want to put it back to original to go with a 1894 MFG 1902 30 WCF 1/2 Oct that I have.

I would contact Douglas Barrels. They make a lot of barrels and this may be something they can provide. This is a direct source in that THEY make them. They know barrels. I would have to find them on the Internet. I have got barrels from them for hard to get stuff and they were EXCELLENT!
