I bought the Ortgies .380 awhile back. Great gun. Recently I bought a .32 barrel for it from Numrich (the mag holds both calibers). I stripped the gun and removed the .380 barrel which is easy to do - rotate it 1/4 turn counterclockwise (looking down at the top of the frame) and pull it up and out. The "new" .32 barrel is in great shape. The barrel lug dropped right into the slot in the frame, and the barrel turned ALMOST all the way to align with the frame. There's a barrel stop on the frame that the barrel wouldn't clear until I removed a tiny amount from the top of the stop (I keep checking with the .380 barrel to make sure I'm not messing up its fit).
So here's the problem and question: the .32 barrel will not rotate exactly in line with the frame. It's close, real close, but it has to rotate clockwise another fraction, which means it has to be hand fitted. I don't want to remove any metal from the frame and I'm kinda at a loss as to where on the barrel lug to remove metal. I've been concentrating on the little cutout that fits up against the stop, but it's not moving into alignment much.
I know, pics would help but I was wondering if anyone ever tried this before, with this gun, and had the same problem.
