Kidvett, Too bad that your are in Canada, or I'd offer to do the job for you. If you you've never removed a luger barrel before and/or don't have the correct wrench and vise shims, I don't recommend that you try it. Rick W's advise is right on. Thirty years ago, before I knew what I was doing, I made all the mistakes that he mentions, doing it the first time. Just to let you know how much force was required, the shotout 20 commerical barrel that I was removing, actually twisted 90 degrees, before the threads let go. Tom H.
