Up to the 70s you could buy good barrels all over the place for 50 bucks or less, those days are gone!

Narrated by David Brinkley. An anchorman from an earlier time when NBC actually reported news.

Like your own hexagon barrel?

I do like the looks, but I was thinking more along the lines of wood stock and maybe some carefully chosen brass accents.

So according to this I could make a muzzle loader from a long piece of black steel pipe.... Interesting.

Nice. I visited Colonial Williamsburg about 20 years or so ago. The gunsmiths had a demonstrated boring the barrel. They then had a demonstration by the rifle team, who were using rifles made there at CW. Awesome.

Lots of stuff to see and do there, well worth a visit .

http://thepiratebay.sx/search/defcad/0/99/0

the search query is “defcad”, but on kickasstorrents, the other defcad packs are available. Versions 3 onwards are split between pirate bay and kick ass torrents, but PB should be enough..especially with the LIBERATOR, which is the latest and most important 3d gun released.
