Barrel question

Lugerdoc · 03-18-2009, 07:32 AM

John S, I agree that the proper tools help a lot. I don't have a mill or lathe either and have to farm out that work, and find that those who do, are reluctant to do small jobs. Regarding reboring barrels from 7.65 to 9mm: I think that it's a good idea for the situation discussed above. You keep the original serial and to replace with a new barrel would cost at least $150 unless you are equipted to do it yourself. TH

If you're equipped to do it yourself, it'll end up costing a lot more!!!
