Hi Justin,

I was referring to the area under the extractor on top of the breech block. You'd have to remove the extractor, spring and pin to observe this area.

Does the pistol headspace properly? What does it look like with a cartridge case in battery?

How does the chamber look inside, particularly around the ridge that the cartridge front lip rests on?

There appears to be some blowback residue on the breech face top and along the base of the rear of the chamber. How tight or loose does an unfired cartridge case fit?

Marc
