Barrel Porting

[sigarms226]

Who in Canada does shotgun barrel porting such as Mag-Na-Porting?

I had a Beretta done by Magna Port at a place outside of Winterpeg M.B. but can't remember the name of the place for the life of me. I can't even remember what it cost me, but i do remember that the insurance for shipping the barrels was outrageous because if they lost it I would have had to replace the gun or ship what was left to Italy to have new barrels fitted for the gun. I had to insure it for the price of a new silver pigeon. I do remember that the work was top notch and it made the gun loud but very nice to shoot. I hope this helps some as a place to start looking.

Thanks for the response! I was hoping to find some place that did do magna porting.

Magna-port shut their doors to the best of my knowledge so the only option now is sending it stateside to Detroit.

"...Mag-na-port shut their doors..." Long ago, in Canada.
Epp's smithy does round hole porting on shotguns. Starts at $100. The round hole suggests drilling vs the EDM Mag-na-port uses.
Precision Arms in King City, Ontario does porting. No price on their site. Shotgun specialists though. trigger@precisionarms.ca

Prepare to hunt alone because your buddies will throw you out of the blind.

It isn't for hunting. It is for high volume clays. It would be done on my SBEII LH.

Casey at TacOrd does the Vang comp system of porting including backboring and lengthening the forcing cone.
