Hey guys! I was wanting to build a airgun soon and I was wondering if anyone knows where I could buy a pellet gun barrel that could ship to Canada? Preferably .22 T hanks for any information you share. :D

Yes I have, I found one for 125$, but I could get a whole gun for that, so I don't know how I will use pellets.

At my Ace hardware, it's 4.99 for a 3 foot section of brass 1/4" brass tubing with an ID of .222" which is a perfect .22 barrel.

Thanks! That's what I needed Gun Freak! But will it work with pellets without the riffling in the barrel?

Pellets stabilize themselves to an extent. Rifling helps, but it's most effective with pressures and velocities seen when dealing with real firearms. If you can't find the right size tubing, try different arrow shafts until you get a good fitting one.

When shuttlecock or diablo shaped pellets were designed, most airguns did't have rifled barrels ;)

Thanks for that link Jack, but wouldn't it be annoying always having to put a Airsoft bb at the same time?

You just use the BB to flare out the skirt of the pellet.

Ohhh, so you just stretch the pellet, I get it. That's an idea.
