    I appreciate the quick response Jim,

    I am a dolt, didn't think of assembling out of the wood... bears the same... should this be remedied with a new guard or is it a non-problem?

    About the barrel, I have read the barrel must be perfectly centered to be "Proper". I can put the nosecap on without having to push the barrel in any which way (No up-pressure spring installed), I have read on another forum this suffices.

    Once again I appreciate the response, have a good night!

    Does it function? Remember the mag is loaded in situ so...minimum mag removal.

    Your other thread has a couple answering that have vast experience, I only ask..."Does it shoot like it is?" If so then it's good.
