Looking For Canadian Barrel Blank Dealer

[jschmuck]

Am looking for a 3/4 inch octagonal muzzle loader barrel blank in Canada for a project gun. I have had no success with my searches. Can any one suggest a source that i can try? Thanks and a happy new year to all.

I think you might be thinking of Bevan King but he is retired I believe. Bits of Pieces (think that is the company name) may make their own barrels but I also think are geared to modern guns and shallow rifling. I think there may be a few companies that import Green Mtn barrels.
Hugh Tonjes now lives in the US and I think does only restorations on original guns. His apprentice Tim Salo now works as a machinist in Kamloops and no longer makes barrels because of lack of demand/ much better income in machining.

You could order a 'flintlock' barrel out of the US, just say'n.

You could simply order a replacement barrel for a flintlock from a manufacturer down there and use that?

Replacement barrels for flint and percussion are available from the "Log Cabin Shop". They are in the USA but I have e-mailed them and they will ship to Canada. Have a look at their site.

Thanks for all the info. Do you know if I will have a probem with the $100 limit if I purchase from the US?

Barry, at Bits of Pieces, or maybe it was Bits and Pieces, is the guy in BC with barrels.
