Yay! *makes with the smileys* what is the "new" barrel made out of, or where was it borrowed from? (like a black water pipe, etc) thanks, shagg

Yep, the barrel and cylinder are 3"i.d. 3.5"o.d. Abs, the caps in the ends are made of lexan, I would have used abs there but I don't know where to get it around here.
I was at ace the other day looking for a way to make the cylinder rotate and click like a revolver should, I didn't find anything but did get an idea. Anyhow while I was there I found some perfect corks for the barrel. I was afraid I would have trouble finding cork that big.
I may be at a bit of a snag, least ways until I can find some aluminum stock thick enough to run under the barrel for support
I cut the groves in the cylinder tonight.

Chilebean, Great job so far. Looks like it should turn out great. I was an armorer/gunsmith for a while... If you need any hard to find parts, let me know and I'll look through my stuff. Rod

I cut the groves on my drill press with a 2" bit that is kind of like a hole saw but with a flat cutting blade instead of teeth, and just clamped the cylinder offset so it just cut on the edge. And finished the curve at the end with a sanding drum on a dremel.
rodrage, maybe you can help. I have an old Iver Johnsons 20gauge that my uncle gave me. I've cleaned it up but the screw that holds the stock on was missing, and it is some proprietary thread size. Do you know where I can get a screw or at least find out the measurement of the threads to get one made?
