Where to start with barrel fitting?
« on: February 18, 2009, 03:12:50 PM »
I want to attempt to fit a .45-70 barrel to my SB2 frame.  The rear of the barrel seems to contact the breech properly, but it will not latch up.  Where should I start?

You have to remove material from the latch shelf if the breach fits correctly.  The place to start is in the FAQs. You'll find step by step fitting info there.
