And that includes people even like me, for instance--I was not conscious of this particular difficulty until I talked to Tom Heller about this specific topic a couple of years ago.

Touche! I should have said "easy" for someone with the equipment, know how, drawings or example, experience, time, and desire to duplicate a barrel.

But Ed was my target, he does not "need" to accpt a 9mm barrel if he does not really want to.
