    .25 ACP Barrel Blank Share(s)

    I want to order a Lothar Walther .25 ACP barrel blank from the factory. The O.D. will be 1.26", approximately 24" in length. I do not need the entire blank and would only need 1/3 of it. My project will be to have John Taylor make an extended barrel for my Beretta 950 (it requires the large O.D. to accommodate the barrel lugs). If any of you are interested, the blank could be divided as small as 1/3 share @ a cost of approximately $100 per 1/3, plus the cost of shipping to each recipient. If interested please PM me. Thanks.

    Now this is interesting... that would be enough to make a TC pistol barrel. Let me think on it.

    A worthy "fun" project. As motivation for you here are pictures of my long-barrel Beretta M70 "squirrel gun" in .32 ACP which John did for me a few years ago.

    Bullberry Barrels recently completed an 8" .25 ACP Contender for a fellow I corresponded with. He used a Lothar Walther blank and is pleased with the results, both in terms of the build and the accuracy of the barrel. Good luck.

    Thanks Outpost 75, John Taylor is a master. He recently relined a Beretta 950 barrel for me, extending the length to 4", with a TJ'S barrel liner. He cut a slot at the end of the barrel and installed a handmade sight. What a talent.
