Straightening a shotgun barrel

Zombie thread resurrected.

Won't a bent barrel shoot around corners? Might be a good one to have. LOL

As long as the chamber isn't damaged, I don't see how a formerly bent barrel could be a safety issue. It isn't holding much pressure, just guiding the payload.

Although, I did get to thinking, it may affect accuracy of slugs through the bore if you don't get it perfect.
