There was nothing about disconnecting the mainspring ["grip spring"] in the Erma instruction sheet. I don't think that would work either, as the cannon assembly has to move rearward ~1/4" to align the magazine for feeding and ejecting.

In any event, my sub-caliber insert is finished. Pics below. I had to wait for the 11/32" x 32tpi NEF tap for the insert nut. I made the nut out of brass just for S&G, and *tried* to knurl it at 14lpi but it didn't turn out too good...

I'll try it out ASAP but as usual I've finished something on a weekend and the club is jumping with shooters. Fall small-bore leagues starting up, center-fire league still going strong, and the occasional cowboy all lining up to shoot.

I'll try next week during the day.
