How is Barrel Shroud Spacer held on?

Postby kidcurrie on Mon Dec 06, 2010 5:48 pm

I'm looking to remove the part listed as #27 Spacer, Barrel Shroud in the parts list. I want to remove it so I can see the condition of the end of the barrel and see if it needs work. I thought it might just slide off but doesn't seem to. Can someone tell me how they've removed it?
thx,
Craig

Put a open end wrench on the narrow part of it and tap it off. It's is just pressed on with a snug fit. Lightly tap it back on.

I was hoping that's all it was.
Thanks,

ditto! I've been thinking about this myself. I'm interested to see what you've found.

The end of the bore had a burr on it where it looks like they make a small chamfer. I stuck a q-tip into the bore and the burr would shave off the stem. Not what you want to happen to pellets leaving the barrel. I cleaned it up by hand turning a dremel grinding tool (cone shaped) and then polished up with a dremel felt polishing cone with compound. Haven't had a chance to get to range to check out yet but i'm hoping it cuts down on the fliers i was getting. Should have taken pics but i didn't.
Also cleaned the barrel while i had apart. I was amazed at how much crap came out. I just used patches with break-free clp and it took 12-15 patches to come out clean.
