RBH45's 9mm/.357

<< < (2/3) > >>

Garnett:
I picked up my 9 mm/.357 this morning.  I will post pictures as soon as I can.  Basically, I purchased a barrel and action.  The forearm is hardwood with a late style attaching metal and apparently originally for a shotgun as the barrel groove is way to big for this rifled barrel.  The stock is off a M24 over/under combination gun.  As with the earlier reported barrel by Mike, it is devoid of any proof marks, assembly numbers, etc.  The action is unmarked on the outside, but has a striker rather than a hammer, so I believe it to be from Utica.

My 9 mm bbl. is very easy to open.  The barrel lug on my 9 mm bbl. measures 2.534

I am going to try to show a picture of the rear sight on my 9 mm.  It is made the same way but is very short with no adjustment for elevation.  The dove tail slot is in the same position as Mike's.




After thinking about it a few days, the rear sight on my gun could have been like Mike's and cut short later.  However, a friend who looked at my barrel, said he has seen a similar sight on some older Savage M1899's.

I purchased a Stevens 94c in 16 gauge and the same 357 barrel on arms list.  I test shot barrel fired fine.  I did tons of research and this is what I found.  SAVAGE M24 BARREL-.357 MAG.
This Savage accessory barrel was originally sold by Numrich Arms Corp. of West Hurley, N.Y., which was the predecessor to the present Gun Parts Corp. It is a single auxiliary barrel 18" long, blued with a front sight only. There is a standard dovetail slot cut in the rear of the barrel for installation of a sight.  The rear of the barrel looks like any other single shot break open barrel and it tapers to a thin muzzle diameter. The rear of the barrel is stamped "Selected Forged Steel" "Proof Tested 9MM - R.F. and ".357 MAG". It was lined 357 with ejector.  The barrel is about 45 years old.  It's cool although I am more of a h&r guy.  I can post pics if any wants to see them
Hope this helps
Rick
