Looking for a Interarms Virginian Dragoon .44 mag barrel


Author	Message
GarouNoir Joined: September 2010	Posted: September 30, 2010 11:50 PM I picked up an Interarms Single Action Virginian Dragoon .44 mag ('76)sometime ago. Just recently when I sent it in to the smith to get it refinished, they found a crack in the barrel near the forcing cone. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a barrel, doesn't matter if it's used or new, as long as it's functional. The Dragoon is a great revolver, sturdy and reliable, and I'd hate to have to hang it up. I appreciate any help anyone can give!

George Mercurio gpmercurio@charter.net https://www.gunpartscorp.com/brblog/post/report/ https://www.gunpartscorp.com/brblog/post/message/ I would look into why it cracked. Is the frame damaged? Before cutting and rethreading, check for a bulge down stream from the forcing cone. a barrel obstruction might have caused enough pressure to bulge as wellas crack the barrel. George M.
