Got my new barrel back 45-70
« on: February 18, 2004, 07:42:11 AM »
Well guy's I got my 22" barrel that I had put on my SB-2 Ultra RMEFCE frame.  I will say this that the comb is too high on the stock for proper sight alignment.  But I tried something already and it I believe WILL work.

I took that new 22" barrel and wanted to see if it would fit my Buffalo Classic frame.... yup it duz  8)  Locks up nice and tight and after I get back from Kona, HI. in TWO WEEKS,  I'm gonna see if all goes well at the range and run some test firings.

I just may have a Buffalo Classic carbine or cadet model here  :-D  Of course I will have to put appropriate sights on this short barrel now as well, its gotta look period correct  :wink:

Isn't the 22" barrel fitted (headspaced, etc) to the SB2 receiver?  If so, be careful of using the barrel on another receiver.
Even a turtle has to stick its neck out to get ahead.
