EDM Produced Barrels

I am producing the following 2 barrel styles by EDM machining to 5 1/2" length.  Both have a tapered profile, integral front sight base, and can be had to fit a NM or OM gun. Available in all calibers in blue or stainless.

  1. Ovate with flat rib - $450

  2. Round with full length rib - similar to S&W N-frame standard barrels - $450

Prices shown are in addition to conversion price when these barrels are substituted for the standard barrel.  For rebarreling projects only add $250 to above barrel cost. A fitted steel ejector housing in included.

Our EDM also allows us to offer a wide variety of front sights.  We offer a fluted base with pinned blade and a  fluted base with blade held in by a screw, similar to Freedom Arms.  Standard blade profile is a modified post with a 20 degree forward tilt and serrated to eliminate glare.  Any blade profile can be substituted at no extra charge.
