I have a gun that i want to take the barrel off
How hard is it to do it, does anyone in wellington have the tools to do it and willing to help me out?
Or should i just go to a gunsmith??
Thanks for any advice

Tools will be rifle specific. What breed is it for starters, might help your cause.
barnard
Hammer and chisel with a little bit of heat and penetrating oil!:thumbsup:
ok will get right to it! :roll:Quote:

If not get someone to dive in with a parting tool right next to the action. Undo by hand.

Scott Trail (Featherston) or Mitch Maxberry (Hutt), pretty sure both of them should have tools for Barnard actions.
ok, was looking for something closer to town as i dont have a vehicle.... Dont really want to send the rifle to anyone as its surely only a 10min job... Thanks tho Ebf, gives me some options
Collings in Karori
will ring them tomorrow, karori is reasonably handy. cheers
No worries, a daytrip out to Scott is worth it - he always has some interesting stuff in the workshop, you might even get to see one of KG's cannons :thumbsup:
You could probably get to him via train, he is 1.2 km from the station.
Take the train to Featherston and enjoy the bloody wind for a day
I have the tools you need, a barrel vise and a barnard action wrench.
Barrel is off, thank you very much graeme and it was good meeting you!
hey my pleasure, good to meet you!
