Will a non chrome lined noveske barrel not last as long as a chrome lined barrel?

We keep going over this, and the answer doesn't change...
Whether the chrome lining does anything to extend the service life of the barrel depends on a number of things, such as:
- Quality of the chrome lining. Cheap chrome lining will flake off over time, effectively negating any usefulness it would have had. I've had experience with Daniels Defense products, but not so much with their barrels... those who have most likely have posted something online about them.
- Usage. How heavily your rifle will be used makes a difference. If yours is a semi-auto rifle which will only see occasional use, any advantage you gain from chrome lining will likely never be seen. If your rifle will see heavy usage - especially at rapid fire or full auto fire - then a chrome lined bore from a quality manufacturer will give a noticeable extension to the life of the barrel.
- The barrel itself. Even with chrome lining, the tolerances of the barrel to the heat generated are going to have an impact on the life of the barrel. If you get a really lightweight barrel, and put it through heavy use, it's going to see a significantly shorter lifespan.
There's also factors such as the ammo you use and how well you maintain your firearm.
You're the only one who can really answer the question of how much use your rifle will see. You're also the only one who can answer the question of whether you're building a rifle for the sake of precision, or just to be 'tacti-cool'. Any questions you have more in-depth than what your questions have been at surface level, you're more than welcome to email me at the address in my profile page.

Will a chrome lined barrel last longer than a 450 dollar non chrome lined noveske or other high end manufactured barrel?
Depends on the manufacturer. A lot of manufacturers claim their chrome-lined barrels to be 'mil spec'. However, this is a myth - they don't know what the actual specs are, and the only basis they have for claiming their product to be mil spec is the presence of chrome lining. Chrome lining actually impedes the accuracy of the firearm, and, if you're not careful in which manufacturer you choose, you could very easily end up with cheap chrome lining that will flake off, leaving you both with a barrel unlined in spots and further impeded accuracy.
Will a 250 dollar Daniel defense chrome lined barrel last longer than a 450 dollar noveske non chrome lined barrel?
If you're using it for a leisure plinking/range rifle, you'll probably never see the difference in service life. If it's a rifle you'd be using operationally, or firing on full auto, and displacing high quantities of ammunition, then you would. Daniels Defense is a great company which makes high quality products. I'm really surprised to see that they would have a barrel for only $250, especially as their products tend to be priced more towards the high end. I suppose it would really come down to what you're building your rifle for. If it's going to be a service rifle which sees a lot of use, you'd want the chrome lining. If not, there'll be no benefit to it, and it'll actually impede your accuracy (which is why rifles manufactured for high precision don't use chrome lining in the bore). Noveske is a quality manufacturer, but their products also get marked up a lot because of the name. For a chrome/moly barrel, you could do just as good for considerably less.

Is the serial number on the butt a factory or military stamp 1127xx Chrome finish with 3 and a half inch barrel last patent date February 1902 38 SW Special and US Service CTGs MP Model?
It appears to be a factory serial # on the butt, it is chrome with 3.5 " barrel, it has black grips with the S&W on them and I can't make out whether it has the S&W engraved on the side of the frame
What is a sears and roebuck 270 rifle worth?
You're probably talking about one of the Sears Modles JC Higgins rifles sold in the early 50s. The value depends on the maker, and the Sears label used to be a detractor, but lately it's added collectability and as the years go by it will be more so as those things go. JC Higgins imported excellent quality rifles starting in the 50s, like the outstanding model 52 from Seiko giving it's first US introduction, and the 54 by Browning, model 51/51 built on FN and Husqvarna acions. I kept the best for last. If you have the first (model 50) from FN (Fabrique Nationale) from Belgium which used a 22 inch crome lined barrel from High Standard you have the only model including the first model 51s with the crome lined High Standard barrels, with a husquavarna action. The later manufactured 51 had differen barrel and action, some said the HVA 640 but the wood and barrel is different. If you have the model 50 hold it dear, because those are becoming very sought after by collectors and because of their outstanding build and accuracy that blows away highly regarded rifles priced in the thousands today. If you have a model 50 which is in new or nearly new condition I don't even know what the price could be, but it could be through the roof. Any JC Higgins is an outstanding quality rifle if you can find them in good condition. You can't touch anything like that for under $1400 new today. The FN action is outstanding and considerably superior quality to the other very fine actions, the HVA (Husquvarna) action is also an extremely high quality action. In the 51 some have the FN action with the chrome lined barrel and some the HVA without the chrome lined barrel. I don't know if there are some combining the HVA with a chrome lined barrel, or the FN with a non chrome lined barrel. Any of these JC Higgins rifles built on an FN (Fabrique Nationale) action, compare favorably to rifles priced near $2000 today. (50 for sure, and some 51s) The Belgium made model 50 with the chrome lined barrel wich adds to the useful service life, even more so. The fact that it was the first JC Higgins rifle adds much to collatability of course. I don't know which you have, and you should have specified, but whatever it is don't sell it cheap because they are all extremely high quality guns and having that kind of quality put into a gun today is rare, and expensive. I'm sorry this is a mess, but there are many variables and I'm trying to get this done and get going because I'm running late.
