I fitted my 1st barrel
« on: November 26, 2011, 11:08:01 AM »
Kept looking at it and comparing both barrels,  finally took a file and a whetstone to it. only 12 strokes of the file, and 5 minutes with the whetstone. ;D   What is the next step/project i take towards being a handi-smith.  :)   3leg

Next step would be checking the latch engagement by smoking the shelf, if you didn't already, and it's in the FAQ's also.
Good job!

If I understood the question correctly, next project might be slicking up the hammer/trigger.

I fitted my 2nd barrel 45 minutes later. Now I just need to get to the range
