if you knew how much needed to be "faced" off the rear of the barrel, you could flt cut the barrel, and stretch the crane as needed for proper head space BUT again its the "How much"? as you will loose "headspace" in the rear..........so ,recut ,refit the barrel (set back) no big deal....and yes looks like a "feed ramp" on a revolver.........hmmm
I found a smith on the American Pistolsmiths Guild website that is about 150 miles from me in Madina Ohio.Sent him a email with the pic i have posted here.So now the wait again.
