What kind of instrument was the 'smith' using that can measure, and differentiate in ten thousands of an inch. Why is the Right barrel, one tenth tighter (.0001") than the left, called Modified, when the Left barrel (I agree that .026" is full), one ten thousands more open is called Full. I agree that a conventional micrometer can measure in tenths (.0001") but I am not aware of gunsmiths, or anyone outside of laboratory conditions, measuring bores down to a tenth. |
I'm guessing those measurements are MBWT...

You knew that before you started this thread. |
Just a hunch but I think Mark reported that the barrel thickness for both is about .026 for both barrels. Then quickly indicated that barrels were modified and full without giving the constrictions. If both barrels were .0266 and .0265, I'd say both were full and full. I have not had my barrels measured and have never seen this piece in person but did see old Larry measuring a barrel thickness. His was an analog gauge but not certain why it can't be digital.
Btw digital weight scales are an inferior technology. I had one that was constantly wrong. Have an old analog bathroom scale that I use that gives me a number I much prefer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pbCnqkLjUE |
