DGFT classification of barrel

Post by penpusher » Tue Jul 08, 2008 9:14 pm

Does any one have any idea how a tube with rifling but without chambering and thread/lugs which would enable a cartridge to be fired in it, be classified by the DGFT

Dunno if this helps but a friend carried a spare air rifle barrel in for me without any hassles.
It looked kinda like what you described.

hi
i have just been thinking about the about the above and the only reason the DGFT would classifies a

tube with rifling but without chambering and thread/lugs

may be because it could be used for firearms? :?

but then the incident of the big gun during the early 90s came to mind, after the 1st gulf war, in the UK some rather large pipes were found with rifling done on them due to be shipped out of UK and to middle east.

just thinking out aloud, as have no idea how the babus mind work. :D
