And entertaining, as well...
The seams are curious...Especially for a "very well known and respected company"...
My WAG would be that it was cut forward of the chamber to eliminate the need to re-chamber it...Silver-soldered to allow fine tuning the front sight placement (angle from level)...
Sawing a barrel off a damaged barrel/receiver (they're one piece on a Broom - think Tokarev 7.62 ammo damage) is quicker than machining a new barrel, chamber reaming, and indexing it...
That being said, the first Cone is nice...I wouldn't mind having it...but price, IMHO, is too high...
(Alvin found a Broom with a bent barrel about a year back...On some well-known site...I wonder if it ever sold???)
