Looking for a brass cocker barrel 12 in or less, bonus points if its freak bores. Or a brass freakback that's cocker threaded.

Oh did anyone ever do a brass Freak back? Don't ever recall seeing one, but I'd buy one if they did. -
Would you like one? I've been thinking about making a limited run... Only problem is, it'd have to be a preorder, the material cost alone is $25-$30 for one back.
If there's enough interest, and Paintdaddy gives the okay for a preorder, I'll make a run.

I can make anything you want. Any marker thread, 'classic' inserts, XL inserts... make ya a Brass Bull if you want.
Just fair warning, as I said. Brass is muy 'spensive these days, and if I have to hand-make each one (as opposed to running a batch of identical ones through the CNC) that's gonna make 'em even moreso.
But, that said, I've been wanting to do up a limited run for a while now... I'd love to make a batch.

Brass freak for standard 5" insert back would really be the nicest icing on the cake for a cocker build I'm doing. I'd pay it. I bet some in the gawking group would be interested in a run of them too. -
I’m in, for my 91 sniper. And DocsMachine I sent you an email last week. Should I send again?

Did a little checking around, and not counting shipping- which can be a chunk in and of itself- looks like material alone will be a touch over $10 per back. So if we do a production run- say, all AC threads and XL tips- then they'll only cost a little more than my usual backs, which go around $55-$60.
Anything over that spec- different markers, the older tips, polishing, milling, etc.- can certainly be done, but at an additional cost.
Latchkey- about the Fishbone and Superstock, etc? Gimme a sec and I'll get something back to ya.

Okay Ladies and Gents, because I have all the business acumen of an overcaffeinated chihuahua, I ordered, and just got in, the brass to make a batch of custom freak backs.
You guys are lucky I'm an enthusiast and not a businessman.
I'm awaiting permission from the boss to be able to post a proper pre-paid preorder. Assuming I don't scrap too much of this fabulously expensive stuff, I should have enough material to make 20 to 22. Please do me a favor and spread the word around- You'll get a brass 'Cocker thread back, with the option of either 'classic' or XL tips, and the option of straight (like a bull barrel) or 'waisted' like a typical 2-piece back. Rough estimate of $75 to $90 each, the more confirmed orders, the lower the price.
I'll have more details when I hear back from PHappy.
