Cost to rebarrel a P08?

[Green57]

XTR, I had the barrel for my Navy style shooter replaced by G.T. with a Navy barrel from the Luger man, AKA Eugene. I bought the barrel as a set along with his reproduction rear toggle.

The barrel was made by Green Mountain for Eugene, so I am sure it is made from quality steel. There are two features on the barrel that Green Mountain did not get correct however.

The flange on the barrel is to thin and had a rounded profile which I have had to file to the proper shape. after some file work it has the sharp edge again but it is still to thin, and that can not be fixed. The other incorrect feature is the contour of the muzzle. It has a flat profile instead of the shallow convex radius a normal P08 barrel should have. I think this can be fixed with some more careful file work, but again, its something I would rather not do if I didn't have to.

I thought about a Lothar barrel but it was 100 dollars more than the barrel from Eugene, and did not have the chamber cut. I'm not sure what it costs to have a 9mm chamber cut, but it was an expense I didn't want to pay and a job that I didn't have the ability to do. A good thing about the Green Mountain barrel was it was already short cambered. I finished reamed the chamber in my M1A so I figured I could do this one also. There is a company that rents finish reamers so this is my next step for the project. If you guys are interested I can start a new thread on this project, I've taken a few pictures along the way.

Hope this information helps.
