Future Project

So I need to get the receiver off a Savage 99 barrel.

I need a barrel vise and a special wrench for that.


But just because you have brute force tools means you can yank them around all brutey forcey and all.

Still, wish me luck.  And patience.

So I will queue offa him.  I hope he's a viewer.

I tried this with large vises and large wrenches, as hard as I could without gouging the metal. Wasn't gonna budge. The smiff came out of the back room a couple of minutes after he went in, barrel switched out presto-twisto. There's a tool for that, apparently for a reason.
