Who can make this barrel?
« on: June 25, 2006, 04:51:18 PM »
I have a G2 and have had thoughts of making it into a somewhat mini sharps 45-70.  Will a full bull octagon barrel work with this frame and who would be the best person to make it?

I know EA Brown Company sells 45-70 G2 barrels, they offer it in a bull barrel, but it doesnt look like they have octagon, but you never know...

I'd call Kerry at Match Grade Machine or at least look at there website.  If the caliber isn't listed they can get a reamer, granted in this case they will have it for sure.  

The do octagon barrels and many other multi-sided barrels.

P.S.  They did an incredible job on my barrel (mine isn't octagon though)
My wife once made the mistake of telling me "all of your guns look alike"...No, I've had this gun for a long time! LOL

Just got my 9.3 X 74R 26 inch custom from SSK industries.

They do excelent work...Better than I thought..

Remember SSK is the same company that makes all the JDJ wildcats ...

Going to have them make me a 26 in 300 H & H...

You will spend about 100 dollars more but its worth it...
