Thread: Aftermarket R93 and R8 Barrels – Major Safety Concerns

Before posting public safety concerns about a competitors product don't you think you should have some more information?

The first thing I would like to know is what was the load fired in it?
How many rounds has it fired and were all the cases in the same state.

Obviously it is a wild cat so there will be no factory load data for it so how do you know it was not massively over loaded? I could achieve the same expansion with a factory blaser barrel if I loaded it hot enough.

Next thing is what makes you think using a Blaser barrel lock up section would be any safer? You still have exactly the same problem of the thin chamber walls and expansion into the threads.
Do you know what material the after market barrel lock up is? Do you know it's tensile strength and hardness? I do and I also know what a factory Blaser barrel is to.

Just a few things to think about. It seems like you are assuming a lot of things at this stage.
