Yes I did Don. Not much to it. John gave me a complete set of tools, spare firing pin and parts for the .22 breach block, extractor.If you ever twist the barrel off make sure the extractor is pulled back out of the recess.
I wont judge the barrel till I shoot it for a while and get loads worked up. If I feel it don't perform the way I think it should I will get the clover out and go to work on it.

I sort of think I'ld like the barrel on this rifle to set up a bit tighter than it does, but it might be that it tightens up after shooting. I haven't taken it off since we fired those first rounds in it.
That's one thing I really found to be handy with these CPA's, the bag of spare parts and tools that come with them.
I hope to get to work on that 44 barrel here one of these days, but things keep getting in the way.

What kinds of tools did you fine gentlemen get with your CPA's? All I got with mind was spare firing pin and maybe a spare screw or 2. But then I have had mind for quite a while. I think that when I purchased mine the cost was around 1500 or a little less.
