foxbasher Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 hi all, ive just obtained a ba 410 made by manuarm. the chamber length stamp isnt all that clear and its hard to tell if its stamped 70 or 76 mm. dont suppose anyone could enlighten me as to its chamber length or an easy way to measure it. cheers steve sorry, its the same as this one...... http://www.gunwatch.co.uk/guns/2922-Manuarm-for-sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbiep Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Sure my mates was 76mm. It was a long time ago. My first thoughts were 3" chamber too. There is one on guntrader, which states that it is a 3" chamber. http://www.guntrader.co.uk/Guns-For-Sale/Manuarm_Shotgun_Bolt-action-410_For-Sale_140429082913011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mick.j Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 You could always measure it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwizard Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) I had a Manuarm b/a single shot and it was proofed for 3" mag shells , only fault was how stiff the bolt was , bought mine from Arthur Bale gunsmith Cardiff in late 70,s . You can measure internal chambers with piece of wood and marker pen but don't know how easy way to do it on these , might be ok with bolt out though .

foxbasher Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 cool, cheers lads. ive just removed the bolt and dropped in a 3" shell and it goes in to the chamber without any effort. if i was going to measure the chamber to make sure, what's the best way to go about it.

acsimmo Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Just remember that if its 3" that's with a fired cartridge ie. Crimp out. Test it with a fired case Sorry if I'm stating the obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
