Douglas Pre-Fit Barrels

[xswanted]

Maybe Stan Taylor can answer the question or others, but I keep seeing an advertisement in the banner at the top of the page for Douglas Pre-Fit barrels.

Usually a pre fit is something like a remage or a savage nut system.

Is Douglas doing this service now?

 

[Stan Taylor]

Yes sir all we need is some basic information and we can make what you need.
Thanks

 

[Stan Taylor]

We also do the RPR prefits as well.

Do these also work on the Ruger American?

 

[Stan Taylor]

That's a good question is the American a nut like the savage if it is all I would need to know is the thread length an if it's 1"an 16 tpi. And we could make you one.

I think a ruger american prefit would be a good item to have in the catalog at douglas. They are very popular

Any idea who's making the factory barrels for Ruger?

Wouldn't be surprised if they make their own. Mine work great.

Mine too, cleaning can be like mining for copper though.
I'm every bit of 1500 or more rounds deep, and thinking of a replacement.
The Krieger blank I have in rem varmint it to big for my barrel channel so I'm contemplating other options versus contouring.

Hi Stan
How about a switch barrel for a Panda no nut? Do most smiths have the Panda dimension? Just wondering.
thanks Don

Ruger makes their own barrels by hammer forging:

Expensive machines but inexpensive mass production for barrels.

Panda tenon and thread dimensions:

So there must be 2 Panda actions with different dimensions, tenon cut to accommodate?

I called Douglas a few years ago about a RA barrel!! I can’t remember who I talked to but he was Very helpful and polite!! And he said he already had the dimensions for them. If you don’t have them now get ahold of me as I still got my factory barrel!!
