GT barrel replacement!

Edward Tinker · 07-26-2013, 08:12 PM

I had picked up a completely stripped receiver at Allentown, on purpose because I had noticed GT's comments about now doing barrels.

I sent him two receivers and two barrels, figured I would give him a challenge, turned out, I gave him more of a challenge than intended.

Top is a 1900 receiver (I was told, is it?) with a nice barrel I had picked up some time ago in 30 Luger.

Bottom is a WW1 era, but scrubbed date receiver that he put on a 9mm barrel.

Evidently the witness marks were missing so much harder for poor GT.

As you can see, they turned out very well. I have plenty of parts for a 1908 to build up a shooter, but not as many 1900 parts

KUDO's to GT for a job well done!
