I have a slight problem! Last season I bent the barrel on my Browning Gold 10 guage!. :CL: Fourwheeling, something about a tree:CL: Anywho! Any of you guys know where I could possible send the barrel to sraighten it out, or do they even staighten them out? Or maybe I could take it somewhere! Im sure I am not the only one who has bent a barrel before Ha Ha

You're better off getting a whole new barrel.

Most gunsmiths I know won't straighten barrels, because every time you bend metal, you weaken it, so even if they do get it straight, it won't be as strong as it was from the factory. With the high pressure loads, especially with a 10 guage, I wouldn't chance it.

Call them.

But listen to Brent. I would also personally buy another one.
