“The Weapons Shops of Isher” immediately came to mind on reading the article title. It is one of the few Ace sci-fi paperbacks that had a lasting effect on me. Well worth the read for those unfamiliar with it.

This process goes further by providing additional tools to individuals beyond the CNC mini-mills, etc.

Individual arsenals for free men.

Understood, but I am saying a good conventional home machinist with fairly primitive tools is also able to produce good quality barrels.

If Pakistani tribesmen can produce guns under Third World conditions, it's futile to think you can stop gun making in the US.

No home hobby machine shop can produce a rifled barrel.

I beg to differ. Boring the barrel takes some technique, but if they can do it in Darra Adam Kel in the tribal territories in Pakistan, or if backwoods gunsmiths could do it in early 1800's Pennsylvania, hobby machine shops with precise lathes can do it easier.
