GJM,
I love the short barrel with the vent rib.

Thanks to all for the explanation about the issues with the 1301. It makes sense now.

Having read the welded lifter solution, I say "Bravo" for innovative thinking. However, I've seen no discussion on what we might be losing by building up the rear of the lifter. Presumably the forward edge of the lifter has to be low enough to allow the shell to ride up on it to indeed be "lifted" for feeding. Not having a 1301 to look at right now; are there any tolerances that are being compromised by this modification? Such things as crud build up or even the timing of the working parts? This sounds like great idea but there is rarely a free lunch... Just wondering.
