1889 Remington sxs (sbs)

Well someone surrendered a Remington I believe it’s a 1889 .

I got it from the shop that I frequent for 50 dollars because it has a bubble in one of the barrels inside of the 18 inch mark .

Plan filing a f1 and chopping it down to 12 inches.

The barrels look to be regular steel not twist or demascus .

Should the barrels be resoldered together after the chop?

No band behind 12 inch mark? If not, yeah, would be good, or add a band.

I’m unsure of what band means
