Blackhawk
How hard to change barrels on a single action 357 ne model Blackhawk. Have a excellent machinist at my disposal.
It's more about the indexing. You want it tight but it needs to be straight. If you cut too much and need to go to the next thread you might have to recut the cone as well as regap with the cylinder.How do you know how much torque on the barrel ?

4'-? so the end of the board fit in the frame window and the remaining 4 feet were used as the lever? I paid for someone to change one for me,,took forever and cost a lot,,, in the end I dont trust the work because of the worker,,,, should have done it myselfI did it with a 4' board cut to fit the frame window and a large bench vise to hold the barrel. I wrapped the barrel with thick (3/8") leather and pine rosin to prevent slipping. I bought the revolver from a friend of a friend for $50 with a bulged barrel. Bought a $40 barrel on eBay, so there wasn't much to lose. Turned out great. It was a 3-screw, but it had been converted and didn't come with the original parts.
