I bought a Marlin 925 for a trainer. I'm wanting to put a Boyds tacticool 917 stock on it. But, the rifle has a standard barrel and I would like to switch to a heavy barrel to fit the barrel channel better. Does anyone have suggestions on where to get a barrel and or, get this done? Thanks for any help.
 
Re: marlin 925 barrel swap

Numrich had some 880sq barrels a while back that would fit well. I have also seen some guys on RFC turning 10/22 barrels down and making them fit but I believe it is very expensive to do it that way. Getting the pressed barrel out might be quite a chore from what I have read.

Other than looks are you not satisfied with how the gun shoots with the light barrel?
