I have a .22 mag that is a pretty darn good shooter, it's a 445 American.
Would kind of like to get a .22LR barrel for it.. At the moment Euro Optic is out of stock. Any other vendors out there that might carry these or maybe even an upgrade?
Thanks much

https://shop.cz-usa.com/cz-products.htmlThey come in, then they disappear quickly. Get on the waiting list, then don’t dawdle.

I did see that and should have mentioned it.. The fact that the CZ barrels have been nitrided kinda spooks me. I've never tried to cut a nitrided barrel for threads or simply to chop it off. Was around a number of CZ 9mm pistol barrels though, don't try to throat them with a HS reamer !! Need carbide. So my guess with the .22 is that it is good from the get go or a turd offering no remedial action. This just a guess.
I can see a Vudoo in my future, lol!

I’m on two waiting lists for a .22 mag American barrel. Don’t care if it’s threaded or not really.

I have a Stainless CZ 22LR barrel that I'd sell. Shoot me a PM if interested.

A 20” barrel is longer than I’d like. Has anyone had experience cutting and threading one of these or other nitrided barrels at 16.5”?

I'm just the opposite. I'd like to find a 22WMR barrel for my 455 (and that doesn't cost as much as the gun did)

Called Eurooptics today and asked about the timeline for backordering a barrel. The rep declined to hazard a guess, but I went ahead and backordered the barrel I want. Had to pay up front, naturally.
We shall see…..

No rush for me. Have plenty to keep me busy for the time being.

I got a 457 American 22lr I was going to part out. I have a message into another guy on RF Central right now for the stock. Waiting on a response from him.

Ran into some barrels on GB today, including the one I want. Cancelled my EO backorder and grabbed one.

Barrel arrived today, a surprise because they never sent the promised shipping and tracking info. This is where I got it from, now that I know they actually have them: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1097256436

Strange as it's listed as a shotgun barrel.. Probably the reason there are 11 of them left.

I searched “CZ barrel” under Gun Parts. Looking under Rifle Barrels yields different results. There were 19 available when I ran into them. Glad I looked; I paid somewhat less than what EuroOptic was charging, and didn’t have to wait.
Got it installed yesterday and plan on shooting it a bit today.
