Basic barrel question

gunsrfun1 · 06-08-2007, 05:18 PM

Hello - Someone has a Luger barrel for sale on the forum, and after viewing the pictures, it made me wonder how the Luger barrel is seated or locked into the receiver. Is it basically just screwed on and torqued to a spec, or is there some type of locking pin or device like the old Smith & Wesson pinned barrels? Come to think of it, I guess this question applies to any gun. Thx
