[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1772688, member: 38048"] Mram your not wrong this time. I already covered this early in the thread. A gunsmith isn't going to take a barrel off the receiver to thread or crown unless it is physically necessary. If the barrel fits through the Chuck far enough to reach your good to go. Here is why. You get paid 65 to 100 dollars to thread the end or crown and thred. Taking barrels on and off take time. Especially factory barrels that are really on there tight. Easy to mar the gun barrel or receiver removing and replacing. So no it's not how it's done. It can be done that way but why would you for a simple crown and thread. If anyone gets offended by this it's just plain silly. Heck I learnt this on the back of a box of cracker jacks. Shep [/QUOTE]
