Q:

LW Barrels

No one answers the phone and only one guy answers the emails. Does anyone else work there? For the last 4-5 months Woody has been telling me about once every week he will get me a quote. When the time comes he doesn’t respond and than starts all over with the bs again in another week.

Can anyone here get him to make some barrels? I told him I’d take as many as I needed to to make a batch.

Are there any other companies to get barrels from for .25 airguns?

Thanks

give her some preload and make her stay open long enough to use the full length, im sure it can be done… 😎

That’s what I was thinking. If 26″ is the max how do you know? I’m hoping the valve release’s enough air for a 30″.

I think we are all intrigued to know what kind of #s that 30” barrel is going to get with the slugs.
I know a longer barrel = more energy for the bullet,pellet or slug, but doesnt that break down at some point? and if so where 30”,28,26?
Maybe cut back and recrown an inch at a time to see were the #s change? Of course that would be an expensive experiment.
If you get 7 ring slugs in the high 900s with this I’ll be next in line for a long gun 😀
Tag,

That sounds fair

quote Assman83:

Yeah, it’s gonna be long, but I really want to move those slugs. Most of my shooting is done off a deck, so I’m usually sitting or prone. I may make a smaller gun with all my extras or sell them to fund another gun.

my prediction:132 ft.lbs.(whoever gets closest without going over wins assmans new rifle…) 😆 😆

Pabs,
I should be good now. Thanks for looking into it.

quote Assman83:

Orderd the barrel today. 12 weeks, wish we were that busy.

Am waiting on someone from BSA to tell me if they can sell to me still. Guessing you don’t need any barrels now?

Moneyshot,

I’m having walt_in_hawaii do the work. He is doing a custom valve and moderator to go with the setup, maybe a breech too. He does really nice work and is a hell of a nice guy. He is very busy now, but the barrels are 12 weeks out so hopefully his schedule will clear up by then.

AND A MODERATOR?! 😯 that gun is gonna be a javelin!

assman, do you have the tooling to make it an AF barrel? i wouldnt mind having a 30 inch lilja barrel on my condor…

unless youre in public, thats a class 2 felony… 😯 😛

i dunno, man 😕 . thats a lot of surface area on those slugs contacting the rifling, 1 in 14 aint that much faster. if the career rifles with their super fast twist dont strip lead at that power, i dont think a 1 in 14 will, either. some pellets may, however, if you dont turn it down a bit… 😉
