Barrel shroud templates

[BBQJOE]

I'm trying to find a template for a barrel shroud similar to that of a M1919A4 for a non firearm purpose. I'm sure I could measure and drill one myself, but it would be so much easier if I could just print out a pattern to copy.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

If I recall, in the recent Shotgun News Gunsmithing book which is a compilation of columns by various gunsmiths, a guy named Steve Matthews built a dummy 1919 including a scratch built barrel shroud. Might be able to contact him if that is what you want through Shotgun News but I understand that he and Reid Coffield have largely retired due to health issues.

Well what I was after wasn't all that hard, and just decided to wing it. Here's the results, I think it came out pretty good.

Nice job.
Now, you can start selling similar ones on ebay.
