[QUOTE="bultinkle, post: 2832928, member: 122809"] That’s not as simple as it’s written in reality. Well it is, but right now it takes a ton of time and a custom contour upcharge. That’s kind of why I said prefits. Also goes for if you’re just trying to find a smith with a barrel on the shelf ready to go or drop shipping a barrel to a smith. Most barrel manufacturers are 6 months out and then gunsmith times. I know it can be done, no doubt about it. But I think all the logistical roadblocks are why people don’t do consider it much. The likelihood of finding a barrel on the shelf of a distributer or gunsmith that’s a pencil with a muzzle bell is almost zero, which is unfortunate not even to mention how hard it is to get a cut rifle manufacturer to contour a stainless featherweight barrel.
