Scoobie1 Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 Anyone out there have a pic of a '27 that has had the barrel shortened? I know PK can do something like this, I think its only moving the Cutts back 2 inches or so but I've never actually seen what it looks like.

LIONHART Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 Go look on the old message board for PROJECT "X". I had this done, and there should be many Pics there..Actually, Doug Richardson had produced a much similar Barrel for me back in 1991, and I believe Damon at http://www.Tommygunner.com is also performing the same modification. Looks really good, especially when a Horizontal Grip is used, or a Deerslayer Horizontal made 1" Longer. Though I feel having a Compensator made 1/2" longer, than moved over the Barrel would also increase the shorter overall length look even better.

brian Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 done by PK http://www.boomspeed.com/kinky/TshortERbrrel.JPG made a nice difference. i only did it so as when i do an sbr, i'll have a better chance of unloading this barrel. and it does fill the bill, so i don't feel as "rushed" to do the sbr.

Scoobie1 Posted December 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 Thanks for the pic, that's exactly what I was looking for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTD Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Here is Project "X" with overall barrel length at 16". The barrel actually extends through the compensator. The gun had a complete rust blue refinish by Damon before I recieved it. LionHart did the oil finish on the stocks - no stain - but I will be putting on additional finish coats of Pilkington red/brown linseed oil. This gun is a real beauty! Will post some pics later.

LIONHART Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 DTD, that sure is a beauty.. You must be proud! http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobie1 Posted December 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Agreed...that is beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTD Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 LIONHART: YOU should be proud - you were the orchestrator of all the special touches that went into it! Correction: The finish is actually black oxide over a bead blasted surface - I'm told the metal finish looks just like a Colt! Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
