New barrels,should have known, didn't.

Having a barrel sent to your local RFD is not the only option, you can have a finished barrel sent direct to your home address if you send the old barrel to the online business such as Chambers. This counts as a 'Face to face' transactions and you can have the old barrel returned with the order, a much cheaper option than via a RFD!

PLEASE NOTE REPAIRS ARE NOT AFFECTED BY THIS NEW LAW

We are still able to sell major parts by mail order if they are part of an exchange/repair, so for example if we receive a cylinder/barrel/silencer etc. from a customer we can exchange it for a new cylinder/barrel/silencer etc.

We have marked on our site items that must be sent to dealers or incorporated into repairs.

Exchange in my thinking is you send them your and they send you a new one and they keep your old one.

Swapping a 177 barrel for a 22 or vice versa can hardly be called a repair.

i`ve bought a couple of HW100 Barrels from Chambers
I sent them a Crosman pistol barrel, and asked it be returned, it returned both times
they were not in the slightest bothered that it was a different barrel
