Here's a few pics of what the gun looks like now....Nowhere near the same. The 4" barrel is roll-marked, and not a good job at that. It shoots okay, but I want it back the way it was. I'm going to call Numrich today regarding the barrel that they have.
Smith told me at the time that didn't have any 5" barrels in .45. I also thought that having a .45ACP barrel put on would work, other than the markings. Also, as Joni stated, the forcing cone area would need to be re-worked. I was unaware that the ACP rifling is different than the .45 Colt rifling.
I'll post again after I see what Numrich has.
