Jim is a great guy and machinist, and modest with his pricing for parts. Finally no more having to dig around for a contact email.

This is good news. Now a lot of questions are answered without sending emails back and forth

Go to the far right on the top, to "more". Click on "store" on the drop down menu. The prices are there

I have one of his shrouds on a prod and his shroud extension on the other. Both are very effective.  Thinking of getting a L W barrel for mine.

Good to see he has a site now. Great guy to deal with, and good to talk to also very friendly. Hope it works out well for him.

But correct me if I am wrong................on his site he states for instance on the .25 caliber LW barrel is ready to drop in, meaning it has already been rifled?????  And to add to this the factory delrin spacers do not work so you buy the ones he sales for $40 to work with the stock shroud cover the gun came with????  So in all $185 plus $40 then you have a true drop in barrel ready to shoot for $225.

Jim has had a banner on the Yellow for several months.
Sorry as I would have posted about it but I figured everyone new about it.

if you want the larger diameter 670 barrel then you need his shroud mounts.. if you get the normal 470 barrel its machined to accept the shroud mounts and is infact drop in ready.. all of his barrels come drop in ready with the machining already done..

as for the rifling, thats done at the lothar shop. if the rifling wasnt done then it would be a barrel blank. it would just be a tube, they cut the rifling into the tubes, chop the ends at a universal length and thats how you get them if you order direct from lothar.. jim gets them like that and then cuts the lead, crown, cuts it length and smoothes everything out for the lead and crown thus making them drop in ready

Ok I see.  I thought the .25 caliber barrel only came in the .630" size and I did not know the stock .25 caliber GM barrel was actually a .470 barrel.  Thanks MM!

I'm a disco owner not a mrod owner so I can't be sure on the 25cal 470 barrels but I'm pretty sure people can get 25cal barrels machined to fit a standard crosman breech

I guess I could take the shroud off and use the digital calipers to measure the OD of the barrel.  ;D

Just remember the OD of the barrel where you can measure it may have been machined down to fit into the action block. I've seen this before and without removing the barrel you cannot tell.
