If you have questions about doing gun work on a lathe, please just ask.

BTW - when you are putting threads on a barrel for a suppressor, you will need to be able to judge class 3 threads accurately. This isn't as easy as it sounds. I use thread wires and a mic, and my thread wires are held in specially cut holders that slip over the anvil and rod on a mic.



How do you taper a barrel? Ive seen jigs made on YouTube to do it where the cross slide nut is removed and basicly follows along an adjustable track mounted to the lathe. Was tempted to make one but hadn't tried it yet.
