Barrel rail for revolvers

[Velocity Villan]

TomG, our revolver barrels are 1.100 in diameter . The rail cut could probably come up .50 or so, and the production barrel will likely be that way. The weakest part of the barrel is where it screws into the frame, and my cut is above that. If you look at older .357/.38 revolver barrels, the wall thickness isn't overly great. But, yes, the production barrel wouldn't be cut QUITE so deeply. This is my prototype.
