aftermarket Match barrels for a 52 are very difficult,i know person make them,but no for general sale.

Nice that you found a barrel.
Will that person also fit it for you ?

Too bad your M52 is loose and needing help.

My M52-1 is as tight as it gets.

Good luck.

clark custom will have available smith wesson 52 match grade barrels with 1-10 twist  and 6 grooves,is the last information i found!

I have been hearing about Clark Custom making M52 barrels since around 2011 

I know Bar-Sto used to make them years ago so I contacted them about a month ago; they do not.

Do not need one myself(knock on wood) but know of others looking for one.
