huh? :huh:...you watch what bob?

 

[Ratfink]

oh, well I've got something to say about that...oh wait, she's comin...

 

[Ratfink]

ok, she's gone..whew:startle: Now bob, are you introducing vaginal cream on your gun-rail? (no euphemism intended):huh:

 

[Ratfink]

twice if it's unethical ....:bi_polo:

 

[Ratfink]

that's so true...well, until I intro'd the spider monkey into the wife's and I love making...it gotta lil weird in there. :startle:

 

[Ratfink]

nick-knack paddy-whack...give that dog a bone! oh wait, that's kinda what got us here...:shame:

 

[Ratfink]

as I have recently discovered, you can OVER polish parts...whom ever owned my Thompson 1911 prior over polished the ramp and I'm having feed issues...the angel is all off. :sad:
ON TOPIC!

 

[Ratfink]

You thought about fitting a new barrel yourself.
I've read up on it, even watched some YouTube.

I have but the cost...I already dumped about $250 into his $400 dollar pistol... How much does that run?

 

[Ratfink]

That's not too bad...I have a gun smith buddy working on it to ensure that is what it is. We've replaced the extractor and polished that and replaced the sere, hammer, grip safety tang and got the pull down to 2.5 lbs. It just chooses sometimes not to go completely into battery. Not always, it improves with JHP rounds. I thought I'd have to replace the receiver?

 

[Ratfink]

If they over did the ramp on the frame, you could always cut the frame for a ramped barrel.

That's exactly what I think they did toney....good to know, thanks:fat:

 

[Ratfink]

View attachment 1431 you can get one of these installed if you don't want to go with a ramped barrel.

What's the nomenclature on that piece toney? Would Brownells carry it?

 

[Ratfink]

...it's a great piece and I really want to keep it

 

[Ratfink]

That's about where I'm at there Ron...spend another $200 or make it a safe queen. I can't sell it in good consciousness...even Rats have ethics. (chime in anytime bob):ass:

1911 AUTO FEED RAMP INSERT | Brownells

Yea, thanks. I called and it requires precision cutting of the frame as does the drop in ramp barrels...so either way, it's $$$$$$ in machining and labor...:huh:

 

[Ratfink]

didja puke just a little on that one Ron?:huh:

 

[Ratfink]

yea, sometimes bob has cause and effect....:sad:

 

[Ratfink]

Well, gunny sez way too expensive to machine all that out and replace either way....so we'll try something else but thanks for all the info!:fat:

 

[Ratfink]

Might have to find me and cannibalized 45 frame from a local gun shop....something the rats have eaten away:dry:
