OK, so the measurement was made by the seller. That is not the way this game is played. The way the game is played, rule #1, is "You buy a Manson wall thickness gauge from Brownell's for about a hundred bucks, measure the wall thickness yourself." Only then do you buy any old gun for more than about $300.00. If my measurement showed .024, I wouldn't be interested in the gun.

Bill,

I had planned on that (already have a gauge) but knowing .024 is borderline, I was only seeking second, third, fourth, etc. opinions before I wasted the time to get the gun in hand. That's the opinion I was looking for, that if it was .024 you'd pass on it every time.

Thanks.
