Here's a question for all you gunsmith types--
The barrel in my 1900AE is a near-washout. Instead of having lands and grooves it could be more accurately described as having humps and grooves. I've considered having it relined, but I've never come up with a satisfactory answer to the question. That, and I'm not sure it is even possible considering the thinness of the slim .30 barrel wall. Re-barrelling is not an option, as the gun is matching. What I'm wondering is, is it possible...feasible...practical...to have the rifling re-cut, maintaining the groove depth but narrowing the lands considerably to the center of the "humps" so that there is at least a sharp edge to grab a bullet, narrow as they might be? --Dwight |
