Hard to say but looks like it from here.

It is difficult for anyone to tell from a photo. Could you get a closer yet still clear photo?

I suggest bringing it in to a gunsmith. They will look at it quickly for you over the counter, probably free of charge.

If you think it's a crack, magna flux it, tell you right away.

 

[Bazzoka_Joe]

you can try to heat it up 50-100C put some penetrating oil on the crack let it sit 10-15 min clean the area whit some alcool just rub a patch on it and re heat it if some oil swel out its a crak (poor man LPI Testing)

An easier method put some varsol on the area dry it off with a rag, tap the area with a hammer, if cracked the varsol will come out of the crack.

It might be a transition in the machining when the barrel was profiled.

 

[Ceska]

Get some magnification on that before you shoot it.

It looks like it...the ridge is raised.

Maybe, just maybe take it to a professional gunsmith before you fire it.

This thread delivers.

In other news - if there aren't any good gunsmiths nearby and the home tests are inconclusive, tie it to a tire/tree/table securely, get something solid to stand behind and fire it with a string around the trigger.

and don't forget to take some video and post it .......... and you might want to remove the stock so all you have to do is just rebarrel it later .
