barrels
A barrel or cask is a hollow cylindrical container with a bulging center, longer than it is wide. They were originally made of wooden staves and bound by wood or metal hoops.
Traditionally, the barrel was also a standard size of measure referring to a set capacity or weight of a given commodity. For example, in the UK a barrel of beer refers to a quantity of 36 imperial gallons (160 L; 43 US gal). Wine was shipped in barrels of 119 litres (31 US gal; 26 imp gal). Barrel has also come into use as a generic term for a wooden cask of any size.
Modern wooden barrels for wine-making are either made of French common oak (Quercus robur) and white oak (Quercus petraea) or from American white oak (Quercus alba) and typically have standard sizes: "Bordeaux type" 225 litres (59 US gal; 49 imp gal), "Burgundy type" 228 litres (60 US gal; 50 imp gal) and "Cognac type" 300 litres (79 US gal; 66 imp gal). Modern barrels and casks can also be made of aluminum, stainless steel, and different types of plastic, such as HDPE.
Someone who makes barrels is called a "barrel maker" or cooper. Barrels are only one type of cooperage. Other types include, but are not limited to, the making of buckets, vats, tubs, butter churns, hogsheads, firkins, kegs, kilderkins, tierces, rundlets, puncheons, pipes, tuns, butts, pins, troughs and breakers.
Barrels have a variety of uses, including storage of liquids such as water and oil, fermenting wine, arrack, and sake, and maturing beverages such as wine, cognac, armagnac, sherry, port, whiskey, and beer. Other commodities once stored in wooden casks include gunpowder, meat, fish, paint, nails and tallow. Early casks were bound with wooden hoops and in the 19th century these were gradually replaced by metal hoops that were stronger, more durable and took up less space. The term barrel can also refer to roughly cylindrical containers made of modern materials like plastic or steel.
I have SIG Cross 6.5 and .308 barrels, my rifle came with the 6.5 and I bought the .308. I bought carbon fiber barrels and only needed these for the barrel extensions. That said, they are brand new, never fired, but do not include the extensions or the barrel nuts. If you already have a cross...

I'm trying to interpret the dumpster fire that is HB1240 to determine whether 3-lug barrels on pistols are OK, or if they are considered "threaded" for the purposes of the law. I'm going to call a lawyer for assistance, but floating this here as well just to get people's thoughts. Regarding...

All slides have been in storage and still have oil residue. Some have nicks, marks, etc. I was going to spend some time and have them refinished. Would make a nice restoration project if you have a donor 1911 frame.
