i recently purched the gb on gunbroker for $560 it has 1 mag. and in very nice condition , i absolutly love this gun , my brother bought a gb back in 1991 and i loved it so much i finaly got my own . my brother reloads his own ammo and i believe he had a batch of bad reloads , probly his own fault , now he has a cracked barrel , im looking for another barrel for him or possibly this one can be fixed but i doubt it , does anyone have a spare barrel or can anyone help me find one ??
Keep an eye on Gunbroker. I've seen 2 over the past couple years. Your other option would be IGB. http://www.igbaustria.com/shop/index.php?cat=c13_IGB-Products-for-Steyr-Mannlicher.html
Looky what popped up on Gunbroker... http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=309466337 Looks like an IGB, but I don't recall seeing 6 gas holes on any original barrel.
Oh no. Oh no no no no. I searched for Steyr on gunbroker. I am so glad I'm broke as broke as you can be.
If you know a machinist or gunsmith with a lathe that cuts metric threads, almost any old 9mm bbl with enough meat to it can be turned to the proper dimensions as a replacement.
