The skipping chambers headache

[jetfire]

50k split pretty evenly between magnum and .38+p

And absolute ton of hard dryfireing.

Look at the bright side: your gun was approximately 50x more durable than a current production Manurhin MR73. ;-)

Your gun bench pictures look like a laboratory or a clean room. I’m doing good to even FIND my gun bench half the time, much less the tools and parts I’m looking for.🤣

How do you ensure a consistent size?

When I used Emory cloth wrapped around a dowel in a drill it was a lot of checking.

I’m not sure I understand the question? The little balls are on flexible stalks so they “give” a fair amount.

They come in different grit levels and you do 5-15 passes at 500-1000 rpms.

10-30 motor oil or similar dip and spin off excess before starting.

Oh I’m right there with you… that’s the floor of my garage lol

For example my JP22 had a shit ton of tool marks that fouled quickly and induced sticky extraction.

This is what it looked like after I attempted polishing… but still had issues with the gun.



This is after the flex honing.

Ok, just thinking what size I might need

They come in different calibers and are a little oversized for chamber so you’d pick the 357 / 9mm one and the stalks would give to accommodate.

I am glad the Flexhone worked on those tool marks but I would be leery of taking out measurable amounts in the throats. Better to send it to somebody who will use a throating reamer or a Sunnen hone machine.
