Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Barrel crown
Posted: 12/30/2014 10:46:27 PM EST
What you guys think? It was my second attempt to re-crown a 1911 barrel.
Sorry for shitty pics.






Gun is a Custom II. The barrel will be fully polished and the rest of the gun Cerakoted. Completed using the tool from brownells and a ton of lube.

Here was my first attempt, not completely happy, but it doesn't look horrible.


Edit: I AM NOT A GUNSMITH. Just a dude who likes to drink beer and tinker with shit...

Nice job.... now ditch the FLGR and get a GI rod with a stainless plug.
