Threaded and non threaded replacement barrels for 1903/1908 Colt Hammerless

**chaosrob** · 05-29-2016 12:31 PM

Had a couple of 1908's with bulged barrels and really could not find a supplier for replacements so we decided to make our own. Figured since we were turning them out anyway might as well make some with threads for cans as well, and it turns out the make a pretty good host.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Excellent platform as you say and an excellent job. They'll actually function. I expect you'll get a whole pailful of PM to buy now... I always wanted one in 380 myself...

Thanks BAR but I do not suppose they will sell that quickly. Not everyone wants a suppressor barrel for a vintage gun like this but it sure is fun. They function great and no need for a Nielson device

Then a guy needs two, one for looks and one for serious social discourse.

You deserve to succeed with quality like that Chaos! Great to see.

Very nice looking barrels! Did you make them on a manual lathe or CNC?

Thanks, cnc Vincent. Had some fun with them at the range yesterday
