did you use an end mill to remove the metal from the barrel, which is how I believe Apex recommends fitting their Gunsmith barrel?
or did you simply follow the Semi-Drop-In video for the Gunsmith version of the barrel?
is the Gunsmith version essentially the same as the Semi-Drop-In barrel with just more metal to be removed from each area (front of barrel, sides and rear of hood, frame fitting pad)?
or does the Gunsmith barrel have additional areas from which to remove metal for an even better/tighter/more consistent fit?

The gunsmith version has more metal to be removed, than the SDI version, mostly on the barrel lug. I didn't have access to a mill, so I did it with a file, marking and filing as I went. It took 2.5 hours and I had to disassemble and reassemble the gun close to a hundred times. Very tedious and not for the impatient.
