Gunsmithing - What lathe for the home gunsmith? | Sniper's ...
Their "gunsmith" lathe is nothing more than a standard lathe with a spider built into the spindle liner out back. The threads are silly thin and we had ours almost stripped out within a barrel or two. 26" was the shortest barrel we could make with the larger gunsmith lathe (again about 7k but not near as nice as the older Taiwan lathe).
