  1. :FlagAm: Some thing else to consider:  The diameter of the cylinders can be somewhat different.  The .38spl/colt pair of pistols have cylinders that are 1.611 OD.

     

              Two of my .44spl/russian have cylinders that are 1.634 OD.

     

              My third .44spl/russian is  1.612 OD.

     

              The pistol frames that use the cylinders that are 1.634 have a larger dimension between the arbor and the area of the frame the bolt protrudes through.  I am by 

     no means a gunsmith but I would be concerned regarding the bolt protrusion/lockup into the notches on the cylinder being the bolt will not have an overall 

              height that is the same as in a frame made to fit a smaller diameter cylinder.  

              I put one of the smaller diameter cylinders onto the frame of a larger diameter cylinder.  The bolt did engage the notches but not with the authority that occurs 

              when installed on correct frame.

              Yes, what you want to do is feasible but obtaining cylinders that match the original diameter would be important to me.

              The locating pins in the frame engage all the barrel assembly the same.

  4. :FlagAm: Getting ready to do the spring oil changes on the vehicles.  I am interested in getting feedback from anyone here that has tried or is using such a product.  I currently use       

              what is considered a high end synthetic oil and other products from Schaffers.  The Corvette engines and the 8.1L in my Silverado get run pretty hard at times and was    

              curious if there would be any added benefit or a negative to the use of a PTFE product.  Currently looking at True Brand by Solid Start out of Florida.

              Do not mean to offend, but I am only interested in real life experience, not speculation or what ifs.

              Thank you for any replies.

              Regards,

              Chas B
