    Underhammer--Switching Barrels

    I have witness marks on the barrel and the receiver for my barrels. The nipple/hammer fit does a good job of alignment. I don't have a tang sight.

    Underhammer Actions?

    I have Pecatonica's H&A. It is a sweet action. The gun is light even with a long barrel. I have a .36 cal rifle barrel and a 20ga smooth bore. The .36 is mostly for target shooting. The smoothbore is for dove and turkey. I got that action because I like guns with interchangeable barrels. I...
