I have a 31" swamped octagon barrel made by Rice. Dovetails cut for front site and stock pins. 20 ga. Has a plug which will need fitting and shaping. very nice finish on this one.

I have a couple. One a 12 ga percussion fowler and the other a .50ish flintlock.
Hey Nit Wit,
I am looking for percussion in right or left handed. Flintlock would be ok if left handed. A raw barrel would be great too.
Thanks,
Fez
ADK,
Sorry, I should have clarified I am looking for a muzzle loading barrel.
I appreciate your response.
Take care,

A few years ago, someone was looking for a barrel like mine to cut off and re-breech for a flintlock. Thought it might help. Looks like you have some good offers here.

Don't have such, but, have you considered black powder adapters - for use in modern guns.
For front stuffing a 209 muzzle loading adapter is available – in 12, 20 and .410ga/bore. It fits into the breech, load BP & Shot/Ball from muzzle, poke a 209 primer in adapter and voila a muzzle loading shotgun.
The other is a black powder reloadable shell – I’ve seen this in only 12 ga, but others may be out there. It’s a steel case designed to fit into the shotgun, that you load a prime separately. You can carry multiple rounds this way.
Realize that purists will poo-poo such, but it’s a way to get into black powder shotgunning, inexpensively.
Hey oldvet67to89,
Thanks for the reply. I am looking to build a more traditional muzzleloading shotgun. But your idea of a muzzle loading adapter has given me another idea...so thank you.
Take care,
Fez
