    Gunsmithing Unique Alpine rebarrel

    Anyone ever rebarrel one of these. I take it from looking at them that its just a matter of removing the barrel extension and working it from there. Id be curious as to whether the extension is perhaps soldered in or shrink fitted.

    Gunsmithing chambering without a pilot

    I remember seeing it mentioned here at one time but I couldnt find it after searching. I think it was Chad that said he does it. Any thoughts on chambering without the use of a live pilot. Perhaps Chad might chime in. The reason I ask is because when I recently ordered in a reamer I forgot to...

    Gunsmithing Stock accessory rails

    Does anyone know where one can obtain accessory rails for the underside of competition stocks for things like bipods studs etc. I see Brownells has one but very expensive. Surely theres other manufacturers with less expensive ones.

    Sig 551 rebarreling

    I know very little about semi autos, just wondering could one rebarrel a 551 with any custom barrel or would you need the actual factory barrel. I know the original barrel has all sorts of exterior contours on it but would a custom barrel do it.
