Maybe they typed their reply using Catnthehat's iphone.

If that is the reply from a well known manufacturer they probably made a typing error, I'd ask for clarification.What can it hurt if you think that they make a barrel that you want?

haha i did think he might be the most likely to translate and i think he did!


i already own it i was just curious how they chambered it. it seems like this is a question best left to measuring instead of asking

I wouldn't ask them for clarification, I'd ask them for the answer in English!

Freebore is a pretent term. You received a pretend answer.
