Hey dan wesson 357 people-need help - The Firearms Forum

Helix_FR · 02-21-2011, 01:14 PM

If anyone could be so kind, i need to know the slot width on the dan wesson barrel bushings on the interchangeable barrel 357's or even the 22's. I need to tighten up a barrel on one right quick but don't have the tool nor the time to wait for one to ship in, so I will make one but I need to know that dimension before i start cutting.

Thanks All

I don't have a Dan Wesson .357 yet. I wish I could help.

A fellow in my Sunday School class offered me a Dan Wesson .357 Pistol Pack for $395 last Sunday. I told him I would take it, but need to set up a meet. I went to a gun show instead of Church this past Sunday.

I would definitely miss church for a Pistol Pack at that price! Just tell everyone "The devil made me do it!"

I had to remove the barrel on my son's DW357. I made a tool but it would not budge the barrel that had not been taken off for at least 15 years (most of it in storage). Not only that but my tool's ears were not strong enough and started to distort. I bit the bullet, so to speak, and bought the tool. The bushing came right off after a pretty good input from me.

Buy the tool!

Here is a link to a man who sells a great tool to remove the DW barrels and he also makes and sales barrels. A friend sent it to me, he has several DWs and knows I am looking for some 357 barrels and/or barrel schrouds in varying lenghts.
