[QUOTE="skipglo, post: 2455046, member: 87776"] D Don't mind you asking at all, owner of 2 welding and fabricating shops building drilling rigs and vac trucks, bridges, supplying structural steel, drilled machined embed plates, moment connections etc and owner of 22,000 sq/ft MACHINE SHOP machining for the RIG builds, automation controls, indexing tables.......etc...etc. So for the job shop welders I had 85 full time men, machine shop 18, I also design build THC/ HEMP extraction facilities and install / advise on all equipment required. Oh....and I also built barges and dredges for the oil sands tailing ponds reclamation projects in Frt. McMurray. These are dredges with 24 and 36" suction lines. The barge was 140' long by 96 ' wide, 6 pumps, on deck 10 ton cranes, E- house....required 27 tractor trailer loads to transport and reassemble on site......and Yes OMG....a rifle barrel.....is.....really complex. Best to leave those to just the gunsmith that is / was a machinist first! I don't comment on things I know nothing about....you see enough of it here and everywhere! Edit.....you or any of you that know a really busy gunsmith and are a friend....I personally know 4 here at home.....might want to ask them...how many farm out barrels to machinist friends.....just for S..ts and giggles!
