R1 bullbarrel

[MikieG]

Right now on the yellow, there is a .22 R1 thread. The pic shows an R1 with some type of sleeve bullbarrel. Anyone know anything about these?

That's one of Lou Ferrigno's( the Hulk) rifles. Everything he has/had was customized and super-trick. That guy on the yf is one of his buddy's out in Cali. I guess Lou is thinning out his collection. That barrel is aftermarket. Paul Watts specializes in these.

Seriousely? The Hulk was into pellet guns? Scared to ask how much $ it takes to get a barrel like that.

[garczar6]

Oh, yeah. Big-time airgun guy.

Anyone have a clue as to how much $ that barrel costs?

[JimL911]

The price of a 98 barrel and rivet, about $140 plus shipping from Chambers.

Rivet? Does the 98 barrel have that bull barrel sleve?

Scroll down to the model 98.

The factory barrel could be a good shooting one or maybe not. If you could get one from P.Watts it would be chopped, choked, crowned and sleeved/shrouded. 'Course it will cost more and involve a long waiting period.
