Beware of the Larry Potterfield video. He makes it sound a bit simpler than it is. He has you adding metal to the hook, which is OK. However, he has you dress the hook and the face of the barrels to get the gun to close. Hold on here, the barrel face does not need to be dressed, it is devoid of metal rather than having excess metal. Larry is thinking with his file, not his brain. You add metal to the hook and then dress the hook until the gun closes and is tight. Potterfield is a blacksmith, not a gunsmith. Be careful.
