It's a work in progress.... I decided my shoulder gun needed a bit of an upgrade on the barrel... So I got an RJ Riser breech and wet sleaved up a 3/4" OD x 16" .22 Cal. Bully Barrel for it... Just waiting on my Disco Valve and Springs.... Ya have seen the other photos before the Bull Barrel... Now I got a delema.... Silver, Blueing or Cerama-Coat for the finish of the barrel? Help me out here... I threaded the barrel to fit the AR-15/M16 barrel goodies.... Ya know... Stuff I don't make... _________________ Say "NO" to BB Gun Wars...

Second choice would be Ceramacoat with hotrod flames. I don't own one of those things - is muzzle flash a big problem? _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Sat Jun 13, 2009 4:55 pm yourdaddyjoe Supporting Member Joined: 26 May 2008 Posts: 4027 Location: Tatorville, USA It is a Co2 Burst hider thing-o'-ma'-jig-a- dohicky-bob.... _________________ Say "NO" to BB Gun Wars...
