Actually better than the images give credit for

Vulcan barrels are great and I have used a few and have quite a few more on hand for future and current projects
Some of the barrels have been done for me within a week but Mr Vulcan is a close personal friend and gunsmithing mentor

Just reminded me I made a set up for easily producing perfect slots when making screws, basically a drill chuck held in the tool post and a slitting saw in the lather chuck. dead quick to use for multiples and if you have readout event better...............Cheers
