Looking for threads or websites that can help me learn about barrel removal. Also interested in finding information on capable gunsmiths in Indiana or other states who can remove barrels such as Winchester 1894's and 1873's. I know just enough about the subject that bigger hammers are no:drawt the easy fix. I really appreciate those of you who are willing to take your valuable time to give me suggestions, Thanks Bogartpar Love those little guys.

Something like this. Its a barrel vise made by bob pastor, top quality, i just got mine in the mail today and am even more amazed by it once i put my hands on it.

I dont know about the specifics w/ the winchesters but w/ that barrel vise and a custom made action wrench to fit that action... (really just two flats)
some lead flashing for non marring shimming material and i cant imagine you would not be able to get them to seperate.

unless i am missing something, that article tells you exactly nothing about removing a barrel.

I have never done it, just found that through Google. I assumed it was okay due to the last step: 6 of 6
Tilt the wood grip off the front of the barrel and pull it away. The barrel is now free.

That's what I was thinking... They probably should have titled it, "Removing the barrel from the forend of a Winchester 1894"
