    Even though a fairly inexpensive gun at the time, there was a degree of hand fitting. Tubes will interchange, but probably not as well as might be expected. Prepare yourself for some work and remember that you can't make a loose fit tight without being creative.

    The problem I see is that the cost of new tubes and fitting will probably equal what you'll pay for a whole gun.

    PS... Not engraved. Roll stamped or etched. More likely the former.
