    find a smith that knows 1917s.
    again.
    to check headspace on a 1917..remove the cocking assembly.
    install tool, felt resistance on the tool is a pass even if it closes, flopping down easy is a fail..
    no reason to use a go gauge on a used rifle, unless the barrel has been changed.
    no go, and field reject..
