No sir not my rifle.....I don't know anything about the process other than he calls it McSwirly. It costs extra and I'm a tight wad , plus my barrels are considered consumables and don't hang around long.

Just ran across this and I have never seen a finish on a barrel like this. Just wondering if someone could fill me in on what it is.

I like it, but I like things that aren't normal

I heard it's done between centers ,in a lathe with a DA sander.
The first barrel I saw it on was done by Dan Doweling(sp?) in about 1973-4.

Dan Dowling had a finish like that he called a swizzle finish.

I've known Dr Dan for many years, the finish he does is pretty much like that. He's done a lot of work for me, a better man you'll not find!
