Questions about Badger Barrels
Are Badger barrels currently manufactured? If they are -

How would I get in touch with them?

Who has barrels in stock?

I have used many of them but I think he sold the company a couple of years ago; call Buffalo Arms; they used to stock them.

Many thanks for the information. I discovered that Ernie Stallman sold out. Eventually Wilson of pistol fame bought the company, but they now have a minimum order of 100 barrels. . . . So I must move to Plan B. I wish I knew what Plan B is.

What type of barrel are you looking for? Kreiger makes some excellent barrels if you can stand the wait.

I see badger bbls on gunbroker from time to time but wonder why they were taken off. Kreiger blank plus machine work will cost about $700. After you get the blank you will have another wait to get it machined. LB

Plan B is Green Mountain; I have used many of those too (BPCR and ML) and they shoot as well as the Badgers do.

I did not see anything at hawkhill suitable for black powder cartridge rifles. Which is what Badger was best known for and what I assumed the OP wanted.
