I really doubt it. If you want a rifled barrel, go to http://www.spudtech.com and order one from Joel. Be prepared to wait a while for it to get to you.

The answer is NO. Shrimphead told you that already.

well before flammers attack i'm sorry for bumping a 3 month old topic but i gota question cuz no1 is helpiong on mine.

how could i use a saw (idk wht kind so give an example) to cut a strait line down the barrel when i sleeve it and i don't know how far apart it should be. should it be the distance in the example? I'm using a 3" barrel and wana get it down to around 2.7-2.8? lol i just wanta sleeve it so its a lil slimer inside. how could i draw a strait line down the middle of the pvc without really messing up or curving off?

couldn't you mathmatically figure out how much you need to take off to make a perfect match?

Tape it lengthwise along the pipe so you cut a straight line but it won't kill the ruler.
