Thread: Making a Sharps Barrel in my lathe.

Hi Guys, Hope you had a good xmas and put a dent in the brown ale supply, I need three homebrew kits at least to stock up my supply. Have done a bit more to my Sharps barrel, octagonal finished and have cleaned up the breech end ready for thread cutting, it will be 1.5 metric thread , and have cut the muzzle crown , looking good. The block of 4140 has arrived for the receiver , so will be farming that out for cutting the breech block hole and for something to do I have made a double cavity mould with to ali blocks , weight range, .430/45 I think, won`t know till I do some casting. Cheers, Homebrew.357.
