Anybody got a clue how to change barrels on a pistol that came with 2 ?

If i remember right you open the crane depress that plunger in front and unscrew the barrel. A friend had one of those years ago with all three barrels and the presentation case.

I think thats correct but for some reason I thought you needed a vise but I cant remember.. I had one when I was in HighSchool.. but that was about 25 years ago...

i know that the pistol pacs came with a special spanner wrench that tightened the barrel, i believe at the muzzle.

Spanner wrench and I believe a " feeler gauge " to set the barrel gap . Looks like you need to GOOGLE search Dan Wesson barrel changes .

You use the spanner wrench and take the nut off the end of the barrel inside the shroud.
Once thats done you remove the shroud and unscrew the barrel off the frame. When putting on the other barrel you screw it into the frame and use the feeler gauge between the end of the barrel and the cylinder, replace the shroud and screw the barrel nut back on.
