Here's the barrel I'll be using on the project. It originally looked like the one on the bottom until I removed the steps. Original weight was 2 5/8 lbs, now a svelt 2 1/4 lbs. Still 23.6" overall. Next step will be to make a receiver sight that fits the two holes in the rear bridge. I keep trying to buy one but they always end up selling for more than I can/want to spend.
Hi z1r/Mr. McCabe. That barrel work is very impressive. I was considering making one for my 96, well with the help of a master machinist friend of mine and his cnc lathe....Do you mind telling me the muzzle dimensions and the breech dimensions so I can determine if that taper will work for my application and so I can pass on some information to the machinist?
