STORM / Re: How accurate?

 :) Anyway  ;)

Speaking of accuracy, THE most accurate handguns I have ever owned were made by Armi San Marco.  ASM's Conversions were abysmal for quality control but boy would they ever shoot.  From a rest, after arbor correction, my .38 Richards conversions from ASM would shoot a five shot cloverleaf group at 25 yards.  At times I wish I had never sold 'em on.  Oh well.

A friend and former cowboy shooter once remarked- "I never heard one of Bill Hickok's victims complain about his accuracy."

Strawhat and Mako, I have truly enjoyed this information on the 1917s, as I love these guns. I am gonna order up some .454 bullets to try out in mine. If either of you two still have a take off barrel I would like to get it from you for a project gun.

You’re welcome!  Any knowledge I take to the grave is wasted. Much better if it is shared.

Barrels?  What style are you wanting?

StrawHat,
I have another thing that you might have some insight to. 
…

Comments?

Mako,

Much of what you deal with is miles beyond my ken.  I do however know others, like you, who may have these answers and I have posed some of your questions to them.  As they get back to me, I will post here.

I do understand tolerance and tolerance stacking.  I have seen grossly huge and equally small throats on revolver cylinders. The small ones can be cut larger, the large ones, not easy to remedy.

I found it interesting your comment about IMI. I never thought about drawings having to be translated!
