Finish question...

Hawaii five-0:

*sigh*

I know you all mad because you made yourself a fool on the public forums thinking you could show everyone you are smarter than a gunsmith and failed. I think that Valley82 is giving the wrong person advice about having a thick skin.

BUT

If you had bothered to read the first part of my post:

Glocks are a parkerized finish not blued and have a nitride harden surface that will resist acid to some extent, if you gonna be a you tube gunsmith at least know the difference between finishes.

you would not have stuck your foot into your mouth and down your throat.

BTW if you looked at the time stamp of the post you would of noticed it was close to 2 a.m., so unlike the others with several months of backlog working 9 to 5 I work into the early morning to keep my back logs down to weeks. SO when I have some free time waiting for the last batch to cure I will come to CalGuns and give tones of FREE and CORRECT advise to fellow members.

Ferritic Nitrocarburizing, Tenifer, Melonite and the rest are surface hardening treatments and are not coatings. Finishes are coatings you put on the surface that builds up on the surface and is dissimilar to the base material. I will be the nice guy here and even though you tried to insult me and failed I will be happy to educate you.

Ferritic Nitrocarburizing (Tenifer, Melonite etc.) = surface hardening treatment

Case Hardening = surface hardening treatment

Hot and Slow rust bluing = surface conversion treatment/Finish

Parkerizing = coating finish

Cerakote = coating finish

Nickel Plating = coating finish

So maybe next time you should first get your facts correct before you decide to "slap down" someone on the forums.


Valley82:

Sure you were attacking me by trying to mock me by laughing thinking Hawaii Five-0 made me look like I do not know what I am talking about.

Basically no better than laughing if I stated the world was round and Hawaii Five-0 says," No No No everyone knows the world is flat".

You might be successful but reading your posts about firearms I think I know why you do not want to be a gunsmith ........ or could ever be one.

Thanks Dan.

"Sorry to say but on a blank barrel not made for a AR you have to not just machine the outer lug, drill holes for gas port, gas block AND for the pin plus ream the chamber you have to also machine the LUGS (something everyone posting seems to forget somehow) since in a AR the lugs are not machined into the action but inside the barrel.

Oops

CS Sport:

Your point is??????

Post was about someone wanting a very accurate barrel machined from a non AR barrel blank. The most accurate way is to machine everything on the barrel instead of using extensions .... very hard and very expensive but has been done.

The extensions were designed after the prototype stage to make mass production cheaper, easier and faster for AR barrels. Stoner's first barrels for the prototypes were one solid barrel with everything machined on them with all kinds of different lugs and ways to attach to the receiver.

So because you can't make one it is not possible to make, is that your point???

Talk about a waste of time and space ..... wasted to much here as it is with the flat Earthers.

Sorry that the CalGuns Flat Earth Society has unfortunately hijacked your thread. They will argue the world is flat while holding a globe of the Earth in their hands.

More Dan, More....Pour it on.

Dan,

Perhaps you could show some pictures of some barrel extensions that you have machined into a barrel blank, making the extension an integral part of the barrel. Would you be so kind as to share the load and stress test results using 416 (or other barrel steel) for the bolt lugs. Maybe you could show a picture of your setup.

Please describe your process for drilling the hole for the "gas block". Not the gas port, mind you, since you specifically mentioned that operation separately, but how you drill the hole for the "gas block".

How many of these have you done? In fact, how many barrels have you fit to any type rifle?

Please point to any high end barrel maker machining the extension as part of the barrel itself, surely there must be ONE maker doing it. I mean really, since the right way to do it is to machine the extension as part of the barrel, some competition shooter somewhere in the country would have spent the money for such a setup in order to give them an advantage over "the cheap and easy way to do it".

Once you get through all of that, please give us another soliloquy on your precision, "floating pillar", pillar bedding process for bolt action rifles.
