As I had mentioned in the Jarvis barrel thread, I am having a barrel made for the five seven. I am tired of waiting on Jarvis ( since Feb ) and they have had reliability issues. I was talking with Joe who is doing the work and mentioned the fact that there would be others that might be interested in a barrel as well. He informed me that he has no problem but would want to know how many were interested. He is not asking for firm numbers or deposits, its just the fact if there are say 5 people interested, they would be done in house. But if there were 20 or more they would gear up a different lathe that would perform the job much quicker. Here is the run down of how mine is being done.
I sent my barrel to their shop, they are going to remove the old barrel from the chamber. They will then place a threaded barrel in to the chamber. The threads will be cut to 10mm ( The same as the Jarvis barrel the Gemtech and ACC use this thread I believe). He is building adapters that will go from 10mm to 1/2 X 28 for those who want to use these thread style suppressors . I wanted a 1/2 X 28 because I use YHM suppressors. The cost is about 220 give or take. I am thinking around 30 day turn around. I will probably talk to him about having the barrels shipped here to me and I deliver them to the shop. This should make the process easier.
So there you have it. I have benifited so much from deals on boards that were put together and I fiqured I should give something back. Nothing is solid as he is just starting the process but I figured if there were others, why not. Just post here with your thoughts.
I hope I am not breaking any rules with this, if I am I apologize.
