If this is for a blank barrel, how does one keep the drill bit from walking away from the barrel into the softer FSB?

What did you use to keep the FSB from rotating out of position while drilling?

I ask because I have struggled with this previously.

It was an undrilled barrel unpinned barrel. Drill halfway on one side, then the rest on the other.

The size of the drill bit accommodates a little bit of walk for the pin size. This was done with a hand drill and the pins pressed in nice and tight.

The fsb should NOT be easy to spin once installed, if it is the od of your barrel and part are not compatible with one another. To increase tightness, one can run a few circles with a pipe cutter on the part of the barrel the new part will go, again there should be no concern of the part spinning as it should be tight just from being pressed on.


PRO TIP: when first starting to drill, drill into the corner of where the pin should go at a 45 degree angle to start your hole, then once you have enough grab, move your drill to the 90 degree position, go in half way then repeat on other side until pin holes meet
