Home Shop Rifling! 

Congrats and good luck with your business! There are actually 5 different ways to do rifling: Button, broach, hammer forge, single-point cut, and ECM. Button is the fastest and easiest and requires the least amount of up-front equipment costs.

@@markserbu crappy one could be fixed on a basic lathe as long as the hole was straight (even if angled) and steel blank was oversized compared to what is needed. Then just resquare the face and weld on the feed lip ramp or bolt it next to one.

I would like to see Mark make the rifling buttons and the broaches.

To EarthSurferUsa. Great idea for air gun to make it effective is the idea from the movie Cyborg with Jean Claude Van Damme where a paint ball gun with 20 to 24 ounce tank is converted into a manual revolver with either 4, 5 or 6 steel tube barrels and 3 indexed steel disc. The front end of paint ball gun resembles a Gatling Gun style look with choosing a 12 inch to 18 inch length of steel tube barrels to assemble all together with welding process to the 3 steel disc. For modified bullets you can make them out of 12L14 free machining steel. Taper the front end to a nice point of your choice of degree taper. Then keep the front of modified bullet solid while the back of bullet will be hollowed out for the air to project it from the barrels. Imagine the psi pushing out those 12L14 steel bullets from those paint ball gun tanks compared to those small Co2 that you put in a pellet gun. Then you can test that baby out on some pine wood slabs and fire away and enjoy. 😁

I went from rc’s to airguns as well, most of your high end airguns use lother walther hammer forged barrels.

@WrathMachine no mate rifling they used to pre drill then rifle it but the American's came over and said put the rifling bit straight through. Thanks for putting my late grandfather down he also used to make gearboxes owned his own company that made us well off, each to there own.

@WrathMachine what ever mate your technical manuals must be different, we used to have barrels kicking around but they are gone now, so I guess I have to take your word for it.

@WrathMachine gee he lived to 90 and died 10 years ago my father said as a kid he played with a non working owen that was rejected, maybe it had rifling when it shouldn't have anyway who makes a subbie without rifling I haven't found any information to prove your accusations, a name of a book would be handy but he made 500 barrels a month on a lathe. A 9mm without rifling who would have thought.

I was thinking that lathing the work piece now using the hole ends as the new centers might probably right the whole thing.

@@FourSeasonsHD that's a process called "turning between centers". You are correct, that would true the outer diameter to the inner diameter. Afterwards you would have to face both ends though because they would be running out

I nearly always drill straight holes. Drilling them in the right direction, however, is another story

I feel like, ...like, you're sending microagressions. To anyone whom it may hurt. Yeah.✨🤣🤸

If he didn't do that the barrel will wear out really quick due to it not being hardened.

That would be fun asf, if I had an option like that I'd probably want to go to school ... :\

I watched the bfg 20 year history today then this popped up

Thank you. Perspective makes a big difference, doesn't it? Here in the U.S. we can just buy barrels but in much of the world they're very hard to come by!

Lol

👏👏

Is it no "BADGERS ARSE",might jist be colloquial.

@@pir869 any arse that's rough and to hand will do, any port in a storm aye?

@@danmackintosh6325 ???

@@pir869 I was inferring bear/badger who cares, all arses are pretty rough if you think about it... (probably came over a bit different mind, I'm not good at wording shit)

Scotland forever.

It helps to know the correct way to use "PRECISION INSTRUMENTS", they're not hand tools for idiots.

@@ronald209 I've always wondered why the threads on these little Mitutoyo C-clamps are so fine, with graduated markings.😂

@@ronald209 my own calipers are fine after 4 years Every other set i get a hold of aside from brand new ones though....

Every set at my machine school is messed up aside from the teachers. It's fixable but we're not supposed to adjust them

@@ronald209 helps if you don't use them as a scribe or over tighten them while trying to gauge a piece.

bucketsof lead Ata boy! Love that spirit!

That sort of seems like the center of the stock. (bunch of scribbles that don't come to anything resembling a point) Good enough, whatevah. It don't mattah, none a dis mattahs.

@@HaqqAttak the center is the area that appears in the middle of all the marks.

Machining is usually a little more precise than that squid.

On this particular part, the OD will be turned while it's held between centers. That means the location of the hole doesn't matter a bit, as long as it's not so far off that the OD won't clean up.

I thought the same thing until I tried it a couple weeks ago. The holes on the other side aren't countersunk for the screw heads. ..and I had to use my impact driver to bust them loose.

Not quite, but close. You can countersink the reverse side if you want, or buy a set of soft jaws for a few dollars. Personally I think buying (or making) the soft jaws so cheaper since your about to ruin a counter sink if you choose to make reversible jaws

This operation is typically done on a metal lathe where the workpiece is chucked in the headstock and rotated against a stationary bit chucked in the tailstock; only one part, tool or work, needs to rotate.

A guy was done last year in Western Australia for making barrels (and the rest of various sub machine guns). The judge accepted it was a case of collectors curiosity but warned that it was very serious and wouldn’t be tolerated again, then let him off but now that his zero tolerance stance has been noted in the judgement I don’t think anyone else will be so lucky

Sounds like 4140 pre-hard, or, perhaps “ETD-150” - a free-machining flavor of the same… (Just got done turning stub-axles of the same for a bike trailer. Pressed and pinned into an .058 thick tube of 3/4 4130 tubing…)

Stainless is a fairly common rifle barrel material does it fall in this range? I've got 6-8' of 1.5-2" stainless I was thinking about using to make a barrel. Might have some other stuff as well not sure. Bought a bunch of metal a couple years ago and have been working on figuring out how to get it home since. I just finished rebuilding the engine on a rough terrain forklift that I'm planning on using. I know one pies as 6-8" in diameter and at least 6' long and there is are other pieces like that hence the forklift. It's all in behind a guy's house and it's soft back there as well and he doesn't want his yard torn up which is why it has taken so long, think it's between 3-4 tons in total.

Quit being a union worker child,--and get the damn job done for a change,----- of diapers. lol

FBI has joined the chat

All he needs to do is add "Here, hold my beer"....

XDXDXDXD

😂Yeah. But still full of WAY more good info than the average RU-vid vid. I can dig it👍🍻. HA!

If you ever get fired from a shop, and you want to get even, sick osha on them with complaints that you know are true violations, (and every shop has them). I wish I could have seen the look on the bosses faces when they found out it was me. They thought they hired an amateur and tried running me through their boot camp routine. I didn't take it, I got fired, and they got burned. :) Safety Sally? Before my time I guess, but sounds like your other Mother. That is government for you, treating grown adults, (who pay for their existence), like elementary kids, when they aren't adult/functional enough to make a dime in our free market. Is there a Safety Sally coloring book too?

@@EarthSurferUSA We had a disgruntled employee do that to us once. Luckily we don't have enough employees for OSHA to have jurisdiction over us.

@Robert Slackware ..

@@EarthSurferUSA sounds like you're a giant twat

@@EarthSurferUSA So you think people are smart enough to control their own safety but chose to call OSHA on a previous employer? After getting fired for knowing too much for their training? OSHA holds a pretty high seat on list of worthless pricks; You are higher on that list.

Edwin Sarkissian that was in the last video.

"real action" laughing out loud

No 24:55

Edwin 👍 Glad to see you here Man

Why not simply by different sizes of barrel liners? They're made to re-do a worn-out barrel, . . . Ream the barrel; heat the barrel; chill the liner; and slip it in, . . . or, for no heat, ream close, and red Loctite, . . .

Now say that line with a twist, just like how Rodney Dangerfield would've.

Hardly anyone sees that! Every single web page screen shot has an "unusual" search term on it. ;-)

It's ok...I'm a professional. ;-)

Luke Ethan: What future is waiting for America, pls read the book WORLD WAR III by Charles Taylor... The great 3. chapter of Americas history, as revealed to Gen. George Washington in December,1776... The FIRST (1st) CHAPTER = it was fulfilled already: Its the American War of Independence against the British colonizer- America become an independent Republic Nation on 04 July, 1777- ex. pres George Washington was its first President... The SECOND (2nd) CHAPTER = was the American Civil War, fulfilled in year 1861-1865 during the reign of then ex. pres. Abraham Lincoln... Its a subtle religious war, the northern mostly evangelical christian vs. southern mostly catholic group- openly supported by the cabals of Rome... They were defeated by the northern American group- and formally surrendered in Holy Friday of April, 1865- almost 1. million casualties was the war toll... The SPARK which started the bloody war was the Afro. American SLAVERY ISSUE- around 5. million in total strength, mostly farm workers in Southern States of America... By virtue of Pres. A. Lincoln "Proclamation of Emancipation Acts" - the subject Afro slave were freed AUTOMATICALLY from their state of being a slave workers!.. The THIRD (3rd) CHAPTER= its not yet fulfilled, in a vision, the Statue of Liberty inhaled a RED COLOR mist or vapor- then the said Statue suddenly shows a violent coughing, slowly bending its knee, but not collapsing flat- then its head- neck area was submerged in almost knee. deep, shallow water... After a while, the same Statue raised. up its submerged head and stand. up slowly!.. The COLOR RED was the traditional COLOR of the COMMUNIST- due to the flag color of then Russian communist state.. Russia become communist controlled from October,1917 to year 1991.. Thus, the RED COLOR mist/ vapor indicate a communist inspired attacked against America- using a poison gas armed weaponries... By the thousands cell group of highly trained terrorist, saboteurs were secretly hibernating in the midst of America, an invicible TROJAN HORSE- just waiting for a coded signal since the 60's decade- to destroy America from within by sabotaged acts, thereby spreading panic, anarchy and hopelessness among the American population... Based on the vision shown by the Holy Spirit in year 1958 to a pastor-it seems that poison gas armed missiles, submarine launched- was successfully used against Americas defense system!.. The streets were packed with sprawled peoples, vomitting in blood, with hundreds of peoples in panic, running on top of such sprawled, dying victims- the sound of air raid siren was clearly heard in the background!.. Some peoples were able to reached their house, but also collapsed vomitting in blood- as they entered their houseyard!... In the ground front, the sound of fierce ground fighting was evident, the noise of volume of firearms burst can be heard- like the explosion sound during the night before New Years celebration... The ground was shaking due the rampant deafening explosion- as the fierce ground fighting continue!...Its implied in the ground fighting scenario, that the 300. hundred million plus private guns, in the hands of American civilians- were doing a valiant & heroic defensive acts- against the ARC ENEMY OF DEMOCRACY!!... In the sea aspect, hundreds or thousands of warships were poised toward the American shores- ready to execute a massive seashore naval invasion- like a duplicate of Normandy Beach landing in France- during WW.2 scenario... The conspiracy group which will destroy America: communist blocks, catholic legionaires, muslim crowds, others- have you noticed the influx of fleeing immigrants (?) from muslim nations?... They were mostly settled to stay in protestant evangelical nations... Accordingly, WW.3 was designed for the destruction of protestant evangelical nations, like: America, Canda, Western Europe (from Germany, westward going to England, then north of Germany; Australia & New Zealand, etc.. Tested defensive solution: a) All immigrants should be relocated in isolated area, section of every nation, in quarantine, sorrounded by temporary barbed wire- wire fence tandem theyll be given with computerized I.D... b) Tent housing, toilet/ bathroom facilities will be provided per family... c) Food cooking equipments, accessories will be also provided.. d) Group picture for family occupying a house/tent will be STRICTLY ENFORCED- no excess occupants allowed, as proven by his absence in the family picture!.. e) Travel pass/ permit= will be required to those who will be allowed to leaved the QUARANTINE AREA... The said Travel Pass basic info: destination (its complete adress, will be reminded that on such SPECIFIC SITE ONLY - will be the scope of the issued Travel Pass- they cannot roamed around!.), purpose for travel, expiration TIME & DATE of the ISSUED Travel Pass/ Petmit.. Thus, when the said Pass become expired, and double check system confirmed that the same Travel Pass holder was not yet returned to their Quarantine Home- a WANTED ALARM will be raised up on ALL CHECK POINT nationwide... f) National I.D. System= must be required on ALL nation citizens, for easy monitoring of nation citizens vs. the immigrants group... g) Cluster leader= one (1) Leader per 3. families will be appointed by police or military authority..All family members under of such Cluster Leader- they must informed their Cluster Leader about their NEW LOCATION- when they leave or about to LEAVE their PRESENT LOCATION... h) Check Point at Community Level= The entire Community Area of the nation will be saturated with "check.point" system- so no one will be able to leave their COMMUNITY AREA without the required TRAVEL PASS/ PERMIT... h.1) Every able body community residents, from 10.yrs old- 70.yrs old, will be required to render a 3. hours Check Point Duty in his assigned post... h.2) Each Community family must be allowed to ARMED THEMSELVES for self protection... Also, the Community Governt must produced their own: Security computer system, CCTV system, hi. tech night scopes, 2.way radio, body armor, helmet, combat shoes, guard house, etc... h.3) By methodical "Community Distribution System" , all security instruments, accessories, gadgets, etc -will be gradually produced one by one, due to the accumulated fund... In the Bible, God was COMMANDING ALL CIVILIAN PEOPLES "worldwide" to ARMED THEMSEMVES (Joel 3:9- 21)... A satanic, very wicked form of leader will be the president of the plan communistic governt worldwide.. Only ONE FORM of governt will be implemented in the WHOLE WORLD- all nations of the world will submit to ONE LEADER ONLY, all countries members of United Nations Organization will become a PROVINCE ONLY, all nation of the world become ONE NATION ONLY!!..The controll of ALL NUCLEAR WEAPONS OF THE WORLD- will be entrusted to such demon possessed LAST DAY DICTATOR!!.. The atrocities of Hitlers group was only 10%, compared to WICKEDNESS of the soon coming ONE WORLD DICTATOR!!.. The nation of Ukraine had shown to the whole world, an EYE OPENER EXAMPLE, that great DETERMINATION, WISDOM & UNITY can defeat a superpower (?) enemy... That proverbial David & Goliath battle can be also true today!.. Its well documented, the honey badger animals has 90% victory chance against a 1-on- 1 fight with the jungle king- the mighty and dreaded LION King...

The proper twist is machined into the button. The hard projections are at a slight helical angle to the axis.

I've used a drill press and nails as a poor man's lathe and live centers... It worked. Not well.

they do .... oh.. not government schools

The twist rate depends on the weight of the arrow in Minecraft of course

You are really clever I liked your way of thinking thank you

Damn, I wish you could help me! I just have NO idea how to use all these nice tools!

Bahahahaha! Lego eggo has no idea. He must not know who you are.
