Personally, I get more satisfaction (not necessarily fun, it's work) from working on pistols, rifles, and shotguns than I do shooting them. Reloading is fun; experimenting with powders and bullet weights to find that magical "perfect" load for any given pistol...

I already have a very nice 1917 artillery and a circa 1930 Dutch Luger from Indonesia...

Pictures please!!!

But back to long barrels. Please STAY AWAY from the 16"+ blank barrels which Numrichs advertises as being for "9mm/.357".

Too late! Well, maybe not...The 8" faux-artillery barrel I made is from Numrich, but dates back some 15 or more years...I did just get a 30 cal blank from them, but I'd have to look it up again just to see what twist it is...
