    • @sub12airgunners
      @sub12airgunners  3 роки тому

      Glad you are enjoying the vid, the lathe was set to 550 RPM for the grooves, the tool is awful thin so any faster and I get resonation through the tool shaft, and just a light but constant tool pressure, fed in by hand. Thanks for watching.

    @Sub12 Airgunners great work. I'm looking to use an FX barrel in a non-fx gun do you know what size the hole in the breech block needs to be? and do the grub screws that hold the barrel in place press against the raised part of the relief segments or between on the joiner piece? Thank you

    • @sub12airgunners
      @sub12airgunners  3 роки тому +1

      The last block I measured was 13.8mm in diameter, although they do vary a little but I would say 13.8 -14 mm would be about right. The grub screws press on the reliefs, not the raised portions. good luck with your project. Thanks for watching.
