Ok, Here's the answer I got from a former DW exec…

"My thoughts would b the knurling may be intended (if the tolerances are true) to help prevent the bbl. from turning when tightening the bbl. nut so the cyl.gap is easier achieve.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So was my guess right or wrong ?

I guess there is no wrong answer since nobody seems to have a concrete answer.  I DO however have concrete evidence for the fixed barrel question Laugh

It appears as if Phil might too.  If not, he's probably pretty darn close.

Sorry for the delay in scanning the answer–I'll get it done tonight after work.  As it stands right now, the earliest reference I can find is….  1973 Laugh Looks like CF has the original Fixed barrel.  This is from the 1973 Shooters Bible.

So does Dusty, but he's off self-medicating hisDWAS problem.rofl

Thanks for the scan & the info, this is very interesting. Soooo...I wonder what a flush nut Porkchop FB looks like? I don't recall seeing one so far, or if there was one that flew in under my 'online auction' radar, it didn't mention, nor show it.

There's still at least 6 'Chop varities I have on my needs list, and you just added another one.DWAS BTW, look at that...a nickel 15 was only $10 more than a bright blue back then.Wink

I'm not sure they made a flush nut porkchop-- they just say it is a one way nut like yours... no mention of it being flush.

I'll bite.

 

It seems that almost all .44 pistol packs had a ported shroud and both a ported and a non-ported barrel. But I am going to say that not all .44 were ported.

Soap Box, Ballot Box, Ammo Box

in that order.

1 Palmer FB 15

1 Rossi 357 Model 92 (lever)
