Reply With Quotemost are small shanks and all the nuts are the same other than the new smooth on. the wheeler wrench is what I use and it works fine .
I am just getting into Striker pistols and have some questions. Striker action what shank size? If a barrel is already set up as a large shank can it be machined to fit a small shank action? I bought a Wheeler wrench and I tried to loosen the barrel nut on a savage Ml'er II and the wrench wouldn't go on the nut but about a 1/4" So decided not try anymore and sold the wrench. Does the Smokeless Ml'r take a different wrench? I see where Midway USA sell a barrel wrench so much cheaper than the other retailers. Has anyone used the Midway wrench or should I just go for the more expensive Wheeler one for changing barrels on the striker? There is a gentleman on the 6BR sight who make action wrenches to fit the savage has anyone used one? I apoligize for all the question but I figured I best stop as I have more. hope you can make sense of my questions? Thanks Lou

I would ask Sin Arms, Devin, about the conversion of large to small shank. I have a Midway wrench and it works but the ends are much larger than the SSS wrench I have. I use the Midway wrench for removing original barrels and cut the SSS wrench so it will slip on allowing me to remove the barrel without taking the scope off.
I sent a PM but never got a reply. Maybe he didn't get it. I hate to bother the man but I did ask about chambering a SS Douglas barrel also recrowning it. If he reads this post maybe he will respond. Thanks for the other information. Tyler are you say all barrels are small shank I see they talk about large shank? Maybe they mean rifle actions? Really new at these strikers and the one that was built on a target action. Maybe that on would take a large shank barrel ?

with the strikers only the WSM's were large shanks. the others are small. the target action is a large shank.
do you have a true striker of a handgun built on a target action? that will make a difference for sure
tyler I have factory striker in 7-08 W/30BR brand new Mggowan barrel with brake for this striker. I have a target action with a custom stock and a 17" Shilen barrel this is not a factory made pistol. Thanks for the heads up. I am slowly getting the hang of these pistols, I always had encores and contenders still do but slowly going to buy more strikers they ar really neat guns. I still like my thompon pistols all 21 of them, May sell some later on. Lou
