Testing & Inspection

Precision You Can Measure.

Dimensional inspection is integrated into the manufacturing process, followed by High Pressure proof testing and Magnetic Particle inspection before final acceptance.

Measure At The
Stages That Matter.

Dimensional inspection is integrated throughout manufacturing rather than treated as a single final checkpoint. Every barrel is air gauged before rifling and again after rifling. Air Gauged Match Grade barrels receive an additional air-gauge qualification after chrome lining.

01

Before Rifling

Initial dimensional inspection establishes the bore condition before the rifling operation.

All Barrels
02

After Rifling

Every barrel is measured again after rifling to verify bore and groove dimensions.

03

After Chrome

Match Grade barrels are air gauged again after chrome lining for final dimensional qualification and selection.

Final Verification

Every Barrel.
HP / MP Tested.

Every MNKY barrel is fired with a high-pressure proof round and then magnetic particle inspected to help identify potential material or manufacturing defects before final acceptance—adding another layer of verification for safety, reliability and confidence when it matters.

HP

High Pressure Tested

Each barrel is subjected to a high-pressure proof cartridge designed to place the barrel under significantly greater pressure than normal operating conditions.

Proof testing helps identify potential material or manufacturing defects before the barrel reaches final acceptance.

MP

Magnetic Particle Inspected

Following proof testing, each barrel undergoes magnetic particle inspection.

MP inspection is a nondestructive testing method used to detect surface and near-surface discontinuities that may not be visible during conventional inspection.

From Measurement To Acceptance

Inspection Is A Process,
Not A Single Final Check.
