Folks,
The gunsmith sent me an image in happy surprise email today. He got done threading and fitting the 5" barrel I had for my Hush Puppy slide! I was able to find a real 5" barrel for a 39/59 pistol on an online gun auction web site for a reasonable price and bought it instantly. For those unable to find another barrel such as that, I do have a PDF drawing for making a threaded barrel extension to length a 39/59 series barrel to the required 5" length. I attached said PDF drawing to this post...
Regarding the picture, I specified a thread pitch of 1/2" - 28, to match the standard pitch for the majority of real suppressors out there made for 9mm firearms. That is the same pitch as AR-15 barrels, hence he put one on the barrel to show the barrel was, in fact, threaded. With the pistol frame, that is NOT a real ASP conversion. Another customer evidently got taken by some clown who passed off a modified 39-2 as a true ASP, so that frame is just there to show things for perspective...
I am a happy camper tonight...
