Am I the only one realizing the orbital rotation + equal pressure at every single angle being needed for this to be an accurate crown around the full diameter of the barrel? 🤔

you dont seem to know as much as you think you do but i will say this the work i do is done right and works perfect
@pinocolada42542 жыл бұрын
If you think about it, you are right. But it works. First time i saw it being done i was sceptical, but it actually worked. I machine the crown on the katje and after that i use this. Knocks of the micro burr the League leaves. Works like a threath if your muzzle end is square.

This is great stuff man! I'm curious though as to why you chose the material brass.
@KevinMillard682 жыл бұрын
brass will not tear up the steel in the barrel and it also acts as a polisher at same time

Using some JB Bore paste works very well with the screw.

Excellent video man! I’ve heard about this but it’s the 1st time I’ve seen it done. You are full of good air rifle info. 20 minute video packed full of great info. No wasted time! Great job man! If I didn’t like to work on my own air rifle projects , I’d definitely sub the work out to you. You definitely understand the detail and fine points🫡

What size screw head would you use on a 9mm handgun barrel? Or can you do a 9mm?
@KevinMillard682 жыл бұрын
I can do any gun barrel I want to do , I have never done a 9mm yet but you still have to size up the screw head properly and to achive the crown you want to have

@@KevinMillard68 So I just have to get a screw with a head larger than the inside dia of the barrel to ream it. Not actually a true 11 degree crown is necessary I take it. OK, thanks for the reply.
@petergriffin3833 жыл бұрын
So I have a AK74 without any crown at all, is it really necessary to lap the end of the barrel square before lapping in the crown? It's from the factory and looks fine, I just don't see it being completely necessary... I really don't think .001 variation is going to make a big difference, all I'm trying to do is allow the gas an escape from behind the bullet.. I'm not building a Swiss time piece... Right? Curious what your opinion is as a machinist. I'm an apprentice machinist so I do have some metal working experience, but nothing compared to a seasoned vet like yourself.
@KevinMillard683 жыл бұрын
in short the better the crown will help with accuracy if your crown is off then it makes it vey hard to site in a gun, i have worked on hundreds of guns and recrowned more then i care to remember but the difference is night and day if you do the job right for me top accuracy of the gun is everything then again you also have to know how to shoot each gun you use as well but with out a good crown youll have alot of problems
@joshrandall3632 Жыл бұрын
All guns have a crown. It's the corner of the muzzle and the bore. If it is clean and consistent all the way around it shouldn't matter if it's tapered at 11°, 45°, 90° or rounded. Facing (squaring)the muzzle is probably not necessary for a factory muzzle but if you cut down a barrel, it's a good idea.

No lapping paist, there are other household mild abrasives that will work, tooth paste , Dutch cleanser or comet cleanser with a little water to make it a paste.

@@KevinMillard68 Agreed.. good video! I should have said "if needed or wanted" I have performed this numourios times because it's conveiant and fast, I have a lathe, but that's a half day effort with disasembly and set up, set, I use valve lapping paist due to time savings, typically crown a bbl in under 5 min, have tried comet and Dutch cleanser also just out of curiosity and if works well.
