BarSto

BarSto manufacturing used to make our length barrels for most prohib Smith and Wesson 5900 series guns.
Since the 659 is a second generation gun, they might still have one, but most of their stuff is for the 3rd generation like the 5906. It could be the same barrel though....

Thanks, I tried their site and it says they no longer make barrels for S&W nor do they have any in stock.

The problem with buying any barrel in the US is that they're restricted items and have to be "exported" through the State Department permitting process, and then imported into Canada. I gave up trying to do something similar and went to Barry Jensen at Bits of Pieces in BC to manufacture a restricted-length barrel. It's more expensive (but not a lot more after you go through the whole purchase/export/import business), but he'll do the work (and he does it very well) and re-register the gun. Good luck. I wish I knew where in Canada you could find such a barrel, but I looked pretty hard and never did.

If I can find a barrel, importing it is no problem. I bought my last one from Numerich but they have been out of stock for some time now.I will try bits and pieces, thanks.
