I have a high-grade 1930s-vintage Ugartechea sidelick shotgun for which I would like a second set of barrels. I have an idea of the cost, but I don’t know who does this now that Ugartechea is out of business. Any suggestion?

Let me clarify, does anyone have suggestions or recommendations for someone to make another set of barrels.

Loud-n-boomer,

I thought Kirk Merrington would do this. Maybe not. Maybe he just does sleeving and monoblock conversions. I'd ask.

Dale Tate (associated with FieldSport up in Traverse City, I think) might also be able to do this. Though I think he actual farms out his barrel work to Kirk Merrington.

JJ Perodeau might do it.

Might try Connecticut Shotgun.

Sorry, those are the only folks I can think of that do doublegun barrel work who might try to make the barrels from scratch for you.
