    .680 TI Barrel....Remind me who made it?

    I remember these being for sale on the old site, but I cannot for the life of me remember the details. Would someone please remind me of who made them, how many, and if they are still available? It's really a cool barrel. I'd prefer it were ported, but otherwise I like it.

    That was Big Tuana. I don't know how many he made but they're all sold now and loose in the world. Tuana himself is on walk-about somewhere. Don't think anyone knows for certain where or when/if he'll ever head back this way. Your best bet is if someone sees your post here and has one they'd send your way. Good luck

      I don’t think I remember any of them being ported.

          Interesting. Anyone know what alloy he was using exactly? Guessing grade 9 since it's more readily available as tubing.

            The minimalist design was due in part to the difficulty of machining the material. I think that was the reason for no porting.

            Ah, BigTuana... You, know in Pulp Fiction when Jules quits the life to walk the earth, I imagine that's exactly the life Tuana lives. I hope his wanderings bring him back here someday soon

            Oh, and one time he took a naked photo with my Walz

              Who hasn't? Oh wait... :-)

              I do have this barrel and will keep it. Wouldn't mind another at all, but I'm glad I have this one for now.
