I am finding it quite difficult to find anything for my DW Model 745, particularly barrels. I have been searching for 8, 10, 12, and 15 inch barrels but I cant seem to find ANY barrels in .45 Colt. All I can find are .22, .357, .41, and .44. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.Image Enlarger

Beautiful gun! and in an unusual caliber.  Have you had it long?  cool-picsCan't help with your search for barrels, but if you find any 44 barrels, point me to them, I'm trying to complete a set of V standard underlug and need an 8" to do it.  A ported shroud would be even better as my 8" is the power control barrel.

Thanks

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Finding anything for a 745 will be very challenging. It is a pretty uncommon caliber for DW's, most of the people who have them hang on to every piece they can find.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

I am rather confident they did not offer 12" and 15" in 45 colt.  As far as 10" I think I have seen one ever on an auction awhile back, the search for the available BA's could be quite exhausting.  Good luck!  Nice revolver you have there.  I just got a 6" SS VH gun this past year as well.

Like said on BA's 10" may be the longest they made (unless customs). the 745 or m45 is on my short list!  Thanks for the pic!

That's a beautiful 745!

I only recall one 745 Barrel Assembly that has come up on GB in the last couple of years and it was a VH6.  (Wonder where that one went? cool )
