Update, Finally got some time in the shop now that they plant isn't working OT. Can't bring firearms into the plant, you know....So Friday afternoon, no one was working I cut the barrel to fit correctly, modified the ejector rod and fiddled a while.....the cylinder gap is .010", a little on the large side, but not much different thatn the original barrel. Need to do something about bluing, and I think I'm just going to linseed oil the grips as they are. I don't think it's worth the effort to checker them. Also did not have the proper tools to knurl the ejector rod. All is functioning, and I'll drop by the range tomorrow and see how it shoots. I have determined thru this process that I am not a gunsmith. Maybe not quite Bubba, but no gunsmith for sure.
