Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing two piece barrel swivel?

Gents,

Planning to epoxy on a barrel swivel base. Any recs for a two piece/clamp style?

Thanks y'all.

No one has any experience with these at all?!

I put one on a rifle, perhaps 40 years ago. Maybe it was an Uncle Mike's? It's still there, is still functional, & hasn't moved yet. Not high-end stuff, but matches the barrel finish well & does what it's made to do. It's on a 6.5x55 so no heavy recoil, but have no complaints.

Thanks for this. Honestly, at this rate, I'm having trouble even finding one for sale that's meant to fit a bolt gun. (Lots of lever gun and shotgun setups.)

You could solder one on but then you would need to blue it

Based on what's available (which is to say, what *isn't* available)... I may end up inletting European style swivel mounts on the stock instead.

You might check with New England Gun Works, they usually carry several types of barrel swivel mounts for rifles.

I have Uncle Mikes Banded on a mauser 660 swap barrel.


these are open top.

Thanks, Rich. Mind sharing a photo of the rifle that wears it? Curious how the open top looks.

Mine is the full band, wrap around.

Thanks, Rich. That's not a 2 piece, correct?

I've used the two piece in the past. Acraglass.
Also used this type which I liked better because you could drill a small indent on the barrel which further locked
it into place.
I've made one, again in the past, that was an open band with hole tapped in the bottom and a cutoff sling swivel stud
screwed in.

very nice work.

I used the one piece wrap around.
