I'm interested in slicking up a couple of my guns for cowboy action shooting, and have read that a common modification for side by side shotguns is to polish out the chambers so that shells eject more easily. How do I go about doing this easily? I know they sell Flex-Hone kits on midway but I don't really want to spend $45 on tools I'm only going to use once, wouldn't some fine grit sand paper wrapped around a .12 gauge cleaning brush work just as well? If not, feel free to correct me before I go ruining my gun. Also, does anyone do this modification to pistols? I figure it'd be fun to be able to drop shells out of my single actions.
For the record, I've got a decent amount of experience with small gun smithing jobs, mostly polishing and refinishing exteriors and manufacturing small custom parts like lanyard rings. So I feel like this'd be a fine step up in my education.
