Got an email from CZ-USA and the new 2 1/2 inch barrels for my Dan Wesson .22 and .357 are coming in today. Took a bit longer than it should have but at least they'll be here today. I've been working on reshaping a set of wood grips I have to make them more compatible with the short barrel and by the weekend I can assemble for the first time.

Got the snub barrel for the .22 as well so I can have a cheap way to practice as both guns use the same frame. I'll post pix when I get them put together...

I checked out the CZ-USA website and they make no mention of any caliber except the .445 Supermag, so I'm guessing that your barrels and shrouds were a special order item?
BTW, how much they charge you for them?

Actually you call Genny at DW and they make them up. Roughly a 4 week lead time. the 2 1/2 inch are $109, 4 inch $129, etc...

Fedex got delayed and they'll be here today, checked Fedex and they are on the truck for delivery.

That seems quite reasonable considering that's about what they were going for 20 years ago. Even a barrel for a T/C Contender can easily cost twice that amount. Good deal.
I wonder if they'll be offering complete guns again in the calibers smaller than .445 SM.
