Is it marked at all anywhere just ahead of the front sight?

Look at the crown of the barrel.
You should see a small silver ring at the crown or at the chamber end. |

[blue][b] Hey arguy
I was just gaining some knowledge . I thought maybe you could tell from looking inside the barrel. I know some manufactures stamp the barrel up by the front sight. Do they usually say chrome lined or what ever it might be ? Is chrome bore and chrome lined the same thing ? Thanks for the tip neverenuff. SaFe ShOoTiNg Jerry [/blue][/b][sniper] |

On many recent Colt models (generally those with non-military barrel profiles), Colt only chrome-lined the chamber, and left the bore unlined. Military barrels are completely chrome-lined, both chamber and bore.
You should be able to see the chrome lining on both ends: [img]photos.ar15.com/WS_Content/ImageGallery/IG_LoadImage.asp?iImageUnq=2879[/img] "Ring around the muzzle" [img]photos.ar15.com/WS_Content/ImageGallery/IG_LoadImage.asp?iImageUnq=2880[/img] Chrome-lined chamber -Troy |

It's a year-old $300 (at the time) Fuji FinePix 2600 zoom.
[img]www.fujifilm.com/JSP/fuji/epartners/images/43860737.Finepix2600z_m_1.jpg[/img] It's certainly not the world's greatest camera, and these pics suffer greatly from bad lighting, but overall it does a decent job for a cheapie point-n-shoot. A better fill flash would help it, but it doesn't have a provision for that. -Troy |
