none of them do .The only way to fire a rimfire on a centerfire frame is with the offset versa pack rimfire bbl .More information is in the FAQ's. Kurt

If you have a versa pack bbl you should be able to fire it with any SB1 small firing pin and any SB2 centerfire frame that is not a SB2 shotgun frame it is for 10ga and12ga Ultra Slug hunter bbls only it's in the FAQ's

I also don't know of one. I've seen some inserts that you put a 22lr in to shot them through a 45lc.

"If you have a versa pack bbl you should be able to fire it with any SB1 small firing pin and any SB2 centerfire frame that is not a SB2 shotgun frame"

Kurt, for what it's worth, I have fired and do fire my Versa Pak barrels on a large diameter firing pin SB1 frame with no problems. It works fine and the primer is struck perfectly with no damage to the firing pin or the breech face....<><....:)

Thanks Andy I had never tried the fat pin so I really didn't know and was concerned about breech face damage . This news may be good for me as I have a couple of them fat pin frames that would be nice to put the 17Versa Pack on. Thanks Kurt
