Hi!:
I´m new in this forum and I have a few questións:
Can I use a straigth barrel shroud instead of a pork shop barrel shroud in a old model revolver?, and viceversa?
The only diference is the extended tang and the barrel nut? Can I Cut the tang of one pork shop an adjust the barrel shroud in a new model one?
The barrels of the new generations have the same diameter and thread?
I have some proyects in mind, and a friend who lives in othe city offers me a pork shop barrel shroud of the same caliber. If I can fix it, I wil not ruin a new one barrel shroud.
Thanks

Irod-
to DWF. The shrouds would not easily interchange. I imagine that with considerable machining you could make the parts fit together, but you would be putting together parts of a firearm that were never engineered or intended to be assembled in that way. Without a very compelling reason, I would not do this.
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.

Non-Porkchop shrouds are on Gun Broker most every day. If you can fnd a seller willing to ship to you, that may be the easiest way to go for you.
Otherwise, I would say that you need to do careful side by side comparisons before you start trying to make that barrel & shroud fit your gun. You don't want that thing to blow apart in your hand...that would take all the fun out of it.
