    1905 Colt

    The fun of making a new barrel for a 1905 colt 45 acp. The extra length is so I have something to hold on to while machining.

    Hmm, you ever make a replacement barrel for a M1903 Type III Pocket Hammerless .32 ACP?

    Do believe you got a chambering reamer that will work

    I think I used the 32 S&W reamer and cut the rim separate. Is this another project you are sending? About time I get the right reamer as I have done more than a few 32 acp.

    Have not yet decided to do it. Original barrel, while salt & pepper bore shoots fine.

    If the ATF ever removes cans from the NFA, then I would want a longer, threaded barrel for it.

    The long barrel Beretta is pure death on bunnies and squirrels.
