  1. i built guns for the green rive forge in springfield or. in th 1970s.i built many n.w. trade guns. they all had Sharon barrels 62 cal. smooth bore. Sharon also made the same barrel in 50cal. with rifling. i built at least 2 nwtg with these riffled barrels and a half stock trade rifle for myself. i remember a couple of Sharon barrel in smooth bore 50 and 58cal. possibly it seems like we could order what ever we needed from Sharon on special order. i built some nwtg for museums and we shipped them all over the world. many of the guns went to Canadians they would come to jed smith or bend primative to pick them up. i hope i remembered all this right i'm in my 70s now and things get a little hazy now and than.
