Hi,
Could I get some help getting the right tools from someone knowledgeable with cutting a shotgun barrel? I will be cutting a Mossberg 500 28" VR barrel to 20" or shorter depending on where the rib support lands. The 20" VR Mossberg barrel is their most expensive replacement barrel (168 at buds) and has ports-yuck. My 28" doesn't excite me and I have two.
What I think I need from Home Depot or Amazon Prime...
-deburring tool? (http://www.homedepot.com/p/HDX-Deburring-Tool-HDX090/204218603)
-small tooth hacksaw blade...which one?
-file to smooth and square the hacksaw cut...which set?
-masking tape for protection and cutting straight line (good there)
-bluing from amazon? (https://www.amazon.com/Birchwood-Ca...F8&qid=1499344257&sr=8-3&keywords=cold+bluing)
I also have a chop saw.
Any help or other such advice? Thanks!
