This may seem like an easy question to some with more gunsmithing experince than me, but I need to know the answer.
My taurus handgun has ZERO options for aftermarket barrels, which is sad because almost every other gun ever made does. Now heres my quesion, if I were to buy a 9mm barrel blank from Numrich or Brownells and had it taken down to the proper length, how do you re-create the chamber and feed ramp? Or is the old barrel simply cut off and the new one attached to the chamber?
The reason I want to know this is because I want a threaded barrel for my gun and no one makes them. My grandfather has been building and turning barrels for years now as a precision long range shooter and wildcatter so I would have him do it for me as I have no business or lathe to attempt it myself. Any help would be great.
