Barrel indexing

[ViggoG]

My $.02 ;


The matter of indexing the barrels would seem to be a fairly simple problem .


The barrel (part 002) could be finished up to the point of milling the front sight post .


At this point it would be screwed into a "Holding Fixture" that has the exact thread dimensions as the "Standard Fork"(part 017) which positions it for the sight post machining secquences .( such fixture being mounted on a milling machine with the proper tooling to form the sight post ).


No magic involved and all barrels are precisely the same .


Perhaps it was done this way, or perhaps any one of several other ways. There are numerous possibilities ..


Just a thought to give some insight on the possibilities that may be involved .
