I always had the concept that the SAAMI deal was voluntary. Voluntary from a business sense I guess.

Most of the reamer vendors offer go, no go, and field gages. I have never seen a field gage in the hand, only in pictures. I measured a set of 9mm gages a while back, curiosity you know, and they measured 754 and 776. Were marked go and no go..............go figure huh?

I was surprised that the European standard was tighter between the go and no go(some slack please). In today's environment, tis probably the more better spec to me at least.

Maybe some poetic license or semantics by us in the colonies huh?...
