Carmoney Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 There's sure a lot of those "Add 3 Inches to Your Barrel" spam emails going around these days....guess Bob took it to heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R112mercer Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Looks like Bob got tired of running up to the targets. Why tire yourself out when you can let your barrel do all the work? Good luck, Bob, let us know how it works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Tracey Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Well Bob, You can cut the 8" barrel in half and sell two 4 inchers to Nemo. Bet Carmoney didn't think of that. Old barrel has useable Hi-Viz sight on it. I'll stay tuned to see how project commences. Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodeoClown Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Nice! How are you shooting with it? Do you find the extra barrel length makes a considerable difference in accuracy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
