And I would like to add that I have tried different ways of milling the profiles, but I can't deviate much from the prototype due to the size of my mill. I have a few designs drawn up in CAD, but the only one that can be made with reasonable effort is the one you saw on Ed's gun.
I could let my local machine shop do more complicated cuts, but the idea is to keep the cost down so that kinda limits the creativity. I have been looking at buying a larger knee mill, but right now it's just a plan for the future. |

Hi Olle, You and I have certainly discussed at length what we would like to try, but now that we are actually on course to make a few barrels, the style and cut on the first 4" prototype will be our standard... It fits ALL of our criteria.. and looks pretty nice /neat, as well, (form follows function!) .....
... I am very happy with your work and effort on this project and in the process, some forum members well acquire some very unique shooters... More neat stuff to come... but, for now, I've got a mountain of drum mags to attend to!.....![]() ... Best to all, til...lat'r....GT......
