Forend Spacer

[ipyrek]

Has anyone got a Steel Moyer forend spacer from Midway?  How good is the quality and fit?  Just wondering because I see the brass ones are not very good.
I would like to get the steel one so I can brown it to match the barrel and receiver I plan on doing.

That's an old and sore subject, started out looking promising, but turned rather sour once the parts were in hand.

I've been corresponding with Moyers Gun Repair about the lack of quality and fit on his TG and spacer, his last email was a response forwarded from another customer that complained about the poor fit, basically the same issues that have been discussed here. I even offered to send him a trigger guard so he can see what's wrong with his copy, I've sent him numerous pics showing the discrepancies in his copy which he seems to blame on us as not knowing what we're doing, he thinks that his trigger guard is an exact duplicate of a modern TG, but I think he's using something very old that has changed since he thinks the rear part won't fit a frame unless he cuts that part away like he does.

I won't be ordering any more of his TGs or spacers, maybe he'll get the message and make some improvements, he could charge a bit more money and it wouldn't be bad if he'd make them fit like they should and match current production parts.

Sorry I didn't go that far back, looks like a lot of problems with Moyer products. Anyone else make a spacer ?

You can find them on Gunbroker once in a while and there are a couple members working on them, but nothing for sure yet.
