IWA Outdoor Classic Project @ Dlask Arms

[Dlask Arms]

We have just finished our selection of DAR-22's for the IWA Show in Germany and this one was left over. I was thinking of using the stepped / fluted design for a Limited Edition run of barrels because I just personally like it so much. Others here are like...."meh". What do you 'Nutters think ?




It reduces so much weight from the front of the gun that a normally front heavy rifle feels almost 50 / 50, it's really nice. (The barrel is a standard 16.5" long barrel with a custom turned XB-5 to match the .820" O.D. of the barrel.) No, it's not chrome lined but ,Yes, it is Nitride finished.

This profile looks like what is used or at least the pic of your threaded barrel DAR 22TX, is that what this rifle is?

You nailed it Jeeps ! I custom turned a bunch of different profile barrels to make 'Show Guns' for IWA and I liked the one on my TX so much I made this one for this DAR-22 Basic to display at the show. The trick is to make the proportions of the -stepped : non-stepped- lengths 'right' for each different stock. Because all stocks have a slightly different length forend this can be difficult. Our DAR-22 Basic comes standard in a Hogue stock so we will do the big production run in these dimensions to offer as an upgrade.

(I also did one for another 'Show Gun' going to Germany in a Stealth Grey Magpul X-22 stock. It is off right now getting a makeover at B.C. Cerakote. I should have it back in a few weeks and will post pics of it then. It is my personal rifle so got a bit of extra love....(:
