Mark.. Come on man this is Arfcom. The average user vocabulary is equivalent to that of a 6 year old or a primate with audio enhancing capabilities via limb gestures.. ie.. (Amy from CONGO). Don't get all Fancy talkin! CITY BOY!

Who you callin' "City Boy"!?

Drill it down just far enough to thread it for a set screw to set flush and it will be golden and no retaining plate to mess with... |
I think it is City talkin' by a Fancy Boy! |

You just let me know how it comes out. I promise I will not tell a single person. Ok, I will probably tell everyone that I did it and have to start charging for all of the advertising. So the way I figure it you now owe me at least 3 threadings and a free transfer..LOL PLEASE, keep us posted on how the threading goes. I am really looking foward to not buying a 200 dollar barrel for a 130 dollar gun.. I know it is the price of toys,, blah blah blah. Good luck Pat, enjoy your new toy. I know I would. Darin |

I started threading barrels a while ago too. I learned early on to go slooooow. I turn threads on the slowest speed I got. .005' at a time 'til close then .001". And use a 29.5 degree feed angle. Don't forget cutting fluid. When you get those barrels done make sure you make something to protect those threads, like a suppressor! When you start on the Ruger 10/22 barrels, you'll notice that many are not straight.

Looks great Pat! What part did you trim to get the sights to line up, the barrel or the sight? I did one today that I bored the sight area out to the major thread diameter and turned the barrel back so I could slide the sight on it and also have room for threads. I then soldered the sight on and then threaded the area past the site. I'll have to try the way that you did it next time. Looks |
