Model 1917 45ACP
Post from yesterday about a guy who wanted to turn his chopped 1917 back into the original configeration. Maybe you guys can swap...
If the action is off or something is wrong I'd have it looked at otherwise I'd leave it alone. I'm not sure what chopping the barrel is going to accomplish unless you're looking for something that's easier to carry. YMMV. Honestly that's a good looking Brazillian. I'd be happy with what it is.
