Does anyone make new 67mm barrels specifically for Selmer CTs?
Or does anyone have the reamers to ream up a more recent barrel (eg. 10S, etc.) to CT spec?

I believe the Backun shop in Vancouver has a good number of new, old stock Selmer barrels. Of course, they also make their own.

As Ed stated, I have made barrels with Selmer CT bores. They are not original Selmer logo barrels.

Allan, would you bore up a 10S or similar barrel to CT spec if requested?
I can't find pacificwinds (I think that's what he traded on there as) on eBay anymore as they used to list loads of NOS Selmer and Leblanc bits.
It's not for me as I've got the barrels I need, but I had an inquiry from someone who recently bought himself a full Boehm CT which has a 63mm barrel which is too short and causing tuning problems, so it would be good to know who can alter existing or who makes new CT-style barrels.
I don't know how much demand there is, but as most CTs I've seen have had their barrels shortened, surely there is some demand for aftermarket 67mm barrels specifically for CTs.
