I have an old Ithaca Outside Hammer receiver. No parts other than receiver, although I have a random set of SxS barrels that go to a completely different gun.
Looked up the serial number, it was made in 1894. I really like the look, but don't ever shoot shotguns. Was considering making a set of barrels in an old black powder cartridge, using a monoblock and sleeve.
Have considered 500 BPE, 50-140 sharps, etc. Other than turning it into an old express rifle, any other ideas?
Also, any idea what to do with a random set of SxS 12 gauge barrels that don't fit it?
I have access to a machine shop, so pretty much just need ideas and advice.
