spinach Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Noticed bump when cleaning barrels . About 3mm long and pushing end of barrel in no more than 1mm. How easy would it be to knock out or is it another job for the gunsmith. John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magus69 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) You could precision turn plugs to tap out the dent which would be rather time consuming, or you could buy a dent raiser and they're not cheap especially if you're only going to use it once and you could end up making it worse by making the barrel oval. Good gunsmiths will already have the tools and it is usually a relatively straight forward and not too expensive job. Mike...
