    Blaser r93 and r8

    As few would know how done some of these a while ago one of which played up so was changed other 2 where fine and still go fine as well.

    Since then have gone bit more to the drawing and nutted them out and tightened them up also with little flaws on prototypes but they where ironed out with little program changes. Have 5 93s on mates ones getting tubes worn out faster then hooker poles :rolleyes:

    The r8 in a machining mind is a whole lot better system tho nothing changes other then size and shape of the collet its just easier.

    A lot of receivers where chopped up an checked for fits and playing around with small shape changes.

    But not they are away an done here are some of what they look like, these ones are blasted stainless finish, and one photo with the r8 still to be blasted, also have another 2 getting coated black as well.

    Can do them with standard saddle mounts or drill and tap for a rail, rail can also have angle milled into it as well.

    With the beauty been you can get the cal an twist that you want an then if you burn it out its a fairly standard rebarrel simular to a factory rebarrel but little more involved still same amount of time.

    Will have a r8 chambered in 7mm gonzo that can be sent around to genuine people with interest in the system with dies an brass to try for themselfs, an can supply all Blaser parts also.

    Will add more here so watch the space Blaser owners.

    So basically are you using the sleeve of an old blaser barrel or are you building those barrels from scratch?

    Thanks.

    Blasers are shit. I'm drunk and off to a titty bar but still know they're shit. Just ask me.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
